My Project

I have requested 600 ml beakers as I have no sink in my room. We use these not only for measuring but also just to hold water that we can pour from. Glass works best as we can also heat these but the downside is that they get broken. The graduated cylinders again are for measuring liquids as I don't have a complete class set. I have just added enough so that every kid has one.

Basic Supplies are not provided and I am trying to replenish my closet with the things that we use often.

Vinegar to teach chemical reactions, Oil to teach solubility, Aluminum Foil to teach metals and malleability. The cups, I have no water, these are easiy to do experiments in and toss. I am always buying these supplies out of my pocket and am just trying to replenish the ones I know I need. Any help would be appreciated.
