Mrs. C. from NY is requesting supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Put the Motion into Science

My students need an Idea Factory Force and Motion set and a Light and Sound Kit.

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

I am a third grade science teacher in NYC. We are a high-need community that needs to put the motion back into science. My classes are ready to see how science works, but they need more supplies to help see it through.

My third grade classes are very enthusiastic about doing "hands-on" experiments to help them learn. Getting special supplies and materials help children learn in different ways. Each child will be able to grasp knowledge in their own way.

If we are able to get the materials from Teachers' School Supply, Inc., my students will benefit in the motion of science. The supplies needed are : Idea Factory Force and Motion and Power of Science Light and Sound. I hope we will be able to get these supplies to help my science classes.

Thank you so much for reading my proposal. It is very nice of you to take an interest in education. The children are the ones who will really benefit from it.
