My Project

Kids love science! So do I, and I am teaching science to all the kindergarten, first, and second graders at my school.

I need supplies to help make their learning hands on as well artistic.

I have some great experiments to show why we have day and night, seasons, and the phases of the moon. These supplies will help the children actually do experiments to prove these phenomena.

I also have to include art! Children love to paint, draw, and color. I want them to make their own solar systems in small groups.
