My Project

Hi all, I am looking for everyday classroom essentials for my 6th grade Science class. After an exciting year of teaching Science my students supplies such as pencils, colored pencils, scissors, glue sticks etc. have ran empty. To help keep the students engaged and active in our learning I am asking you for a generous donation to keep my students going.

I look forward to this new 6th grade Science adventure during this upcoming school year.

I hope to be able to do many Science projects to help enrich student learning. As any scientist knows, experiments require materials to complete. All of these supplies will help further my students learning with hands on activities and interactive notebooks.

Thank you all for your support during this new and exciting time. I appreciate any help in preparing the future Scientists of tomorrow!
