My Project

I am a science teacher who wants to do more hands-on activities with my students that require students to wear gloves for safety. The activities in mind include various labs inside and outside the classroom (at the garden). This includes a continuous vermiculture and outdoor composting/ gardening project.

I also want to spark interest in learning through the use of new teaching props and provide students with new incentives for finishing required work earlier.

On top of these things, I am also in desperate need of a few basic supplies like grading pens, manilla folders, and correcting tape which are essential for my job.
