My Project

In the next couple of weeks will be moving into simple machines and recycling study. Unfortunately, we do not have a lot of books on these topics. Our children would love a STEM Ramp for testing velocity and some more books to learn about how simple machines work and recycling. I would love these to be a part of our curriculum so our children can grow and learn.

We appreciate everything that you all have done already, and we appreciate you helping out our classroom and our students.

Thank you again for all your help! We can't thank you all enough.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
