My students need to experience biochemistry and how enzymes impact reaction rates. We are requesting a biochemistry kit, chemistry of esters kit, enzymes and cheese making kit and lead test kit.
My amazing students are primarily low-income, disadvantaged, and come to us having little or no experience with lab experiences. Our school caters to working parents with extended school hours, free breakfast, and provides extended learning after school hours.
Our incredibly dedicated professional staff works hard to provide hope and especially joy and appreciation for learning which enables young scholars desperate to escape from crushing and oppressive poverty.
I am confident that providing actual hands-on lab experiences will encourage and motivate even the more reluctant learners.
My Project
We are requesting a biochemistry kit, chemistry of esters kit, enzymes and cheese making kit and lead test kit. Being able to engage in scientific inquiry will positively impact my scholars' lives. My students have never had opportunities to experience actual chemistry, and we spent the entire first semester getting caught up on material they should have seen in middle school.
However, a quality science program is expensive.
I have spent hundreds of dollars of my own money to try and give these deserving youth exposure to this amazing content. Anything my students get to do in the lab will motivate them to achieve excellence and change their lives. I've never taught in a building with no appropriate textbooks.
