My Project

Thank you for stopping by my project! I am requesting a donation for pencils and notecards for my biology and medical terminology classes. We have almost depleted my pencil resource over the last few years, and are in need of more to finish out the second half of the year.

Students need the notecards to make flashcards to learn their new medical terms.

This is the first time my students are being exposed to breaking down medical terms and word parts, so there are lots of things to memorize/learn. With the notecards my students will be able to quiz each other and their classmates to successfully learn the new terms.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
