My Project

My students will use the VESPR model chemistry kit to demonstrate chemical bonds and help them understand how chemical bonds form. We will use the pens and highlighters for grading papers and for use in everyday lessons. The art materials will be used for poster and group projects relating to chemistry topics. The bins and organizers will make it easier for students to submit papers. Every item has been carefully selected to enrich both my teaching, and my students' learning. My goals for this project are to ensure my students and I have everything we need to be successful. My students are the best part of my day; help my classroom be the best part of their day.

Ms. Lapham
Grades 9-12
