Ms. Griffin from Manchester NH is requesting supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Ready, Set, Zoom!

My students need stereomicroscopes to view specimens in greater detail that can be afforded by an unaided eye. The purpose behind these microscopes is to look at the close details of 3D specimens.

My Students

The students are leaders driven to understanding our world and to bring forth liberty, change and a solid understanding of improvement. They are here to grow, to improve and to challenge themselves in all areas. Our school is growing every year, and with that we are constantly tested and moving towards growth.

My students strive to improve our school in many ways, with not only their confidence and courage, but with knowledge and heart.

They truly desire to make a mark on the world, and to be able to overcome the challenges they face in and outside of education.

My Project

The educational experience of a student in science is paramount in growing critical thinking skills and the love of inquiry. Being able to provide these students with tools that allow them to take their knowledge out of the classroom and into the laboratory is a vital experience. Our school is growing, and along with that comes new challenges and opportunities for improvement. We will be able to look at the wings of fruit flies, the specifics of leaves, and even the swimming apparatuses of aquatic organisms. These wonderful experiences really spark curiosity in a student, and lend them the ability to follow that interest.

The stereomicroscopes will allow the school to provide more in depth science courses for high school students as well as give middle school students the ability to utilize real scientific equipment and learn scientific processes.

This opportunity to do so would be a wonderful gift to these students as they grow in their educational career.
