My Project
We are seeking funding to purchase an egg incubator and a web camera for our classroom. This project will give students the opportunity to observe the full life cycle of chickens, from egg incubation to hatching. The web camera will allow students to monitor the eggs in real time, even when they're not physically at school, fostering continuous learning and engagement. This hands-on experience will support lessons in biology, life sciences, and responsibility, while sparking curiosity and excitement about nature. I teach STEM to Kindergarten to 4th grade and all students will benefit from this.
More than half of students from low‑income households
