Microscopes and Mitosis: Bringing Cell Science to Life
Help me give my students hands-on opportunities to explore the microscopic world and deepen their understanding of cell division with a uHandy Pro Mobile Microscope Science Kit and a new mitosis lab kit.

My Project
I love how curious and eager my students are to dive into the world of science. They are hands-on learners who get excited when they can explore real-world science beyond the pages of a textbook. Each day, they ask thoughtful questions and show a genuine interest in understanding how life works at even the smallest level.
The uHandy Pro Mobile Microscope Science Kit will allow my students to observe cells, tissues, and tiny organisms up close, making abstract concepts real and exciting.
It will also help them develop important scientific skills like observation, analysis, and critical thinking. The mitosis lab kit will give them the chance to actively study cell division — seeing the different phases of mitosis under the microscope instead of just reading about them. These resources will transform our classroom into a dynamic science lab, where students can experience the wonder of biology firsthand.
