Help my 5th graders become engaged, hands-on scientists! We need folders, paper, cups, straws, and Clorox wipes to safely and effectively complete our science observations.
My 5th-grade students are curious, creative, and love to explore the world around them.
In our classroom, we prioritize hands-on science activities to foster critical thinking, collaboration, and a love for learning.
To successfully carry out these investigations, we need essential materials like folders to organize their work, paper for recording observations, cups and straws for experiments, and Clorox wipes to ensure a clean and safe environment for exploration.
These supplies will directly support our lessons, helping students learn about scientific concepts in a meaningful and memorable way. For example, with cups and straws, they can design and test models to learn about engineering principles, while folders keep their discoveries organized and accessible.
Your generous donation will not only provide these items but also send a powerful message to my students that their learning and curiosity matter. Thank you for helping us build a bright future through the wonders of science!
Supplies Needed:
- Folders (set of 30)
- Paper (reams for writing and recording)
- Cups (disposable or reusable for experiments)
- Straws (biodegradable or plastic for building and testing models)
- Clorox wipes (for maintaining a clean workspace)
Thank you for considering this project! With your help, we can provide an enriching and hands-on science experience that encourages young minds to dream big.
