Frog Dissection Equipment

My students need 17 dissection tool kits in order to dissect the frogs that were given through DonorsChoose.org in December.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Gosney's classroom raised $276

This project is fully funded

My Students

Frog Dissection Tools! These tools are really essential in the dissection process. PLEASE MAKE THIS POSSIBLE!

My students are Title I students in a poor/low middle income class neighborhood in Phoenix, Arizona.

It is made up of the many different diverse cultures and ethnic backgrounds. I teach grades 6-8 science--an age group that can be difficult to reach due to their disengagement of academics. As Carl Sagan stated, "Every kid starts out as a natural-born scientist, and then we beat it out of them. A few trickle through the system with their wonder and enthusiasm for science intact." I want to ignite my students with the wonder and enthusiasm that may be lost in science. My goal as a teacher is to engage my students and in particular, the middle school girls, in believing in themselves and encourage them to think outside of the box. By giving them these hands-on, inquiry based, positive, engaging materials, my students will spread their creative and academic wings!

My Project

The students will use the dissection tools in the frog dissection that we received previously in December. Can't wait to see the excitement and joy of this unit! The toolkit has the necessary items such as scissors, forceps, knife, etc. It is vital to have the necessary tools--rather than fabricate one together with office supplies.

The project will make a difference by enabling our students to use the tools--rather than fabricate the tools with office supplies.

It will make a difference! Their view of life science will blossom with this science project!
