Learning About our Planet at the Natural History Museum
My students need transportation to the Natural History Museum to observe rocks and fossils.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Lee's classroom raised $561
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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 Students
How can we teach earth science without ever leaving the classroom?? Students need to observe the variety of rocks they are supposed to recognize to pass the tests and learn about their wonderful planet. We need a bus to reach the museum!
My public school tries to offer the best to our kids who come from economically disadvantaged families.
75% of our students are African American alongside with Latin and Asian children. This situation offers unlimited opportunities to learn tolerance and team work while discovering new perspectives. However, our school and our families can't afford the sources we need to support academic knowledge and significantly improve student achievement.
My Project
You would be proud to offer our fourth graders a field trip to the Natural History Museum. This visit will strengthen their knowledge about earth structure and clarify how the landscape changed over the centuries. Three classes would be able to observe rocks, gems, and fossils. Our students must realize the variety of rocks that compose our planet as well the way geologists categorize them. Most importantly, they will be able to ask questions to experts, take notes, and memorize facts.
Your generous gift would of course enthrall the kids who love field trips.
At the same time, your donation would support their education. You might be inspiring some of them to become scientists! You would definitely make a difference.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
