Fun With Physics Informational Texts

Help me give my students access to informational texts that can spark imagination, inspire inquiry, set them on the path of discovery, and answer questions generated by explorations.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Davis's classroom raised $840

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

With this project, I will be able to establish a dedicated Physical Science library section in my classroom where students will be able to access information, procedures, and answers when we do not have access to computers. In this library, students will be able to find information on a variety of topics, some we might not cover during the course of the year, and experiments designed to explore ideas in different ways than are presented to them. This is a great space for students to pick up on an idea and run with it!
