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

Graduated cylinders are an essential tool in any chemistry lab, allowing students to accurately measure and transfer precise volumes of liquids. These cylindrical containers, with their graduated markings, enable students to develop the careful techniques required for quantitative analysis and to visually observe key properties of liquids. However, with regular use, graduated cylinders can become cloudy, damaged, or go missing, impacting the quality and efficiency of lab work.

By supporting this project to restock my lab with graduated cylinders in various sizes, you will be making a direct investment in my students' scientific education.

Having a full set of graduated cylinders in pristine condition will ensure that each student has the opportunity to practice hands-on measurement techniques and build their confidence in the lab.

From determining the density of an unknown liquid to preparing solutions of precise concentration, graduated cylinders are at the heart of countless classic chemistry experiments. With an ample supply, my students will be able to work in small groups, fostering teamwork and peer learning while developing a intuitive understanding of significant figures and uncertainty in measurement.

My students come from diverse backgrounds but share an innate curiosity about the world. Your contribution to this project will nurture that curiosity, providing the tools for them to take on the role of scientist and explore the fundamental questions of chemistry. As they pour, measure, and mix using these graduated cylinders, they will be developing skills that can open doors to future careers in medicine, research, and industry.

I deeply appreciate your support in equipping my students for scientific success. These graduated cylinders will serve as a tangible reminder of your belief in their potential and will be put to excellent use as we investigate the mysteries of matter together.
