Goggles for Budding Scientists

My students need 30 safety goggles and 5 graduated cylinders for countless 5th grade science experiments.

  • $172 goal

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

We are a public school in a large district. Budget cuts have been made around our county, making it harder for our schools to get supplies funded. As a second year teacher, I am in need of certain teaching supplies, as I am just beginning my teaching career.

As a fifth grade teacher, my students have a great interest in science. Our schedule is very packed during the school day, so I have started an after school hands on science club. Our students have taken great interest in this club, but we are in need of certain classroom supplies to make it happen.

Having safety goggles for all students will help ensure their safety as we do our science experiments. We are also in need of graduated cylinders for some of our bigger chemistry projects.

By funding this cause, you will be helping my students get a hands on, high quality experience at their science club, as well as keep them safe while they are having fun. Also, what child won't feel like a "real scientist" with a great pair of goggles! Thank you so much for your help!
