My Project
I teach science to one hundred fifth grade students everyday. Due to Covid, these students have missed out on a lot of information, but particularly science. Most remediation focuses on reading and math, so today's 5th graders have had less exposure to science skills. I would love to be able to peak their curiosity with microscopes in the classroom. My students are naturally interested in exploring their world, and these tools will allow me to link their interest with science skills. Most of my students have never been exposed to a microscope, much less had one in their hands allowing them to see things they have never noticed before.
More than half of students from low‑income households
