My Project

In my science classroom, I strive to create an environment where learning happens even during mental downtime.

I’m seeking your support to fund a unique ceiling word wall filled with essential science vocabulary words.

As students gaze up, they'll be reminded of the key terms we've covered and are expected to know.

This creative approach will help reinforce their understanding and retention of scientific concepts, making every minute in the classroom count. With your help, we can turn idle moments into valuable learning opportunities, ensuring that science truly sticks.

Thank you for your support!
