My Students

My fifth graders are very active learners who demonstrate that they value education. For the most part, they have been good at completing their tasks and they have been modeling what is expected of them as seniors of the school.

They just love science and the knowledge they unlock is literally out of this world!

They are well behaved and love learning about the weather.

They love games and music and appreciates it when I integrate them into the science lesson. Many of them struggle to get the hang of some concepts because they need more of an authentic experience.

My Project

I know you are waiting to hear how your donation may help a child reach for the stars; literally. Please help to make science come alive by donating a microscope and weather tools that will help students to observe and track data; making science more authentic and captivating. Picture the faces you will see of students who peek through a microscope and see a world of microorganisms that they never knew existed. Help our students to unlock the door to new possibilities as we nurture and groom weather watchers. The weather unit is always a challenge for students who have to make SENSE of all the ELEMENTS. With your help, learning can take place within the physical classroom through purposeful interactions or virtually as their teacher models the use of real life science tools! Thanks in advance for your help in preparing the new generation of scientists!
