My Project

All students have some creative abilities which they are eager to display. Having the right material will enable them to manipulate their ideas and if they make an error they can redesign and even collaborate with follow classmates to bring the idea to the fore. Having a material such as the modelling clay appropriately stored in the requested cabinet will allow my students to use the same material over and over again. Recycling resources is very important since there will be less taken from the ecosystem. It is essential to use our resources properly so that it is not quickly depleted.

The modelling clay will avail my students the opportunity to have options where materials to use for their project is concern.

It is easily manipulated and it will be easy to reconstruct if there is a change of ideas. They will be able to model of several ideas throughout the curriculum. Two of these are making a model of a cell and making a model of an atom. They can also design different body systems. They can construct the DNA of the nucleolus and many more.

Having the appropriate materials for engineering and building ideas are crucial in getting my students tactile abilities to the fore.

I appreciate your kind donation for the critical development for my students' education.
