Sassy Science Students

Help me give my students a love of science through age appropriate books and a subscription to Brain Pop!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Anderson's classroom raised $408

My Project

I teach ten 1st graders that I looped with from Kindergarten. I am in a very poor neighborhood, thus making parental involvement at home, in the class, or financially difficult. I have seen so much growth in these boys and girls since last year. Behavior can be an issue in my room impeding learning.

This is why I want to use picture book to help my kiddos learn and love science.

Brain Pop is something that these students really enjoy, but that I am unable to obtain for their learning.
