My Project

Covid has greatly impacted my students as they were quite young when the lockdown occurred. This has led to my students missing out on crucial opportunities to explore the world around them. It is my hope that I can encourage my students to explore the world around them through science by providing them with the opportunity to explore the microscopic world with a microscope and slides of various organisms. The ability to reference posters and an interactive periodic table will encourage them to ask questions about the world around them and to further their own education by encouraging them to explore the world around them through science.
