Let's Do Some Chemistry!

Help me give my students some fun chemistry experiments and demonstrations to make the content easier to understand

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Walrath's classroom raised $774

This project is fully funded

My Project

The materials I have requested are to be used in my chemistry classroom. We currently have an annual budget for science teachers of only $200. It is very hard to make chemistry fun and exciting with that.

Lab experiments, demonstrations and hands-on models help understanding.

This project will allow me to give students more of those things to enhance the understanding of chemistry concepts.

I currently use some demonstrations rather than actual experiments because we do not have the equipment and supplies for all the students to use. I want them to be able to enjoy the experience themselves rather than just watching.
