Mr. Rahman from New York NY is requesting lab equipment through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Learning Science Through Demonstration!

Help me give my students demonstration kits for chemistry. My kids need the molarity and concentration kit, periodic puzzle classroom set, electrochemistry cell measuring kit, potato clock, and desk organizer to work on hands-on activities.

My Students

I teach Physical Setting/Chemistry course at an urban, inner city performing arts high school. Everyday I walk into work and realize how lucky I am to have such a great job with fantastic students! With the new Common Core State Standards coming into effect, I am faced with new teaching challenges to reach my students in the most effective way possible. Your support can help me achieve my goal of becoming the best and most innovative teacher that I can be in order to guide my students towards their academic success in science.

My goal is not just to have my students excel in the classroom but to develop into knowledgeable citizens ready to make an influential impact on the world.

My Project

Teaching chemistry is more about understanding than memorizing. My students can use the periodic puzzle set, solution demo kit, potato clock, molarity kit, electrochemical kit, and desk organizers to work on their hands-on activities. Without hands-on activities, students may understand the theoretical aspects of science but will struggle to explore the practical part.

Students need to work on hands-on activities to comprehend scientific contents instead of just reading class notes.

Teaching science is more about exploring the phenomena rather than lecturing about it. It is extremely important for the next generation to understand science. We need to encourage our kids and make our classroom exciting through chemistry demonstrations.
