Science Class Startup

My Project

I am creating this project to start up a science class at my new school that has never had a dedicated science class until this school year.

My school has created a K-4 science class and I am trying to get science kits, safety glasses, a rock collection, and other resources to make their first exploration into science fun, exciting, and engaging.

My students are so excited for this new class and I'm wanting to make sure they are getting the best science class possible. I want to make sure that science has a lasting impact on my students.
