FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Amanda's classroom raised $244

My Project

In class we use the Amplify curriculum and while it does a fabulous job of guiding students in scientific discovery, it has a few pieces missing. I am looking to get a few class sets of supplies to fill in the gaps in Amplify's classroom kits.

Science can be a bit abstract, even with a curriculum designed for discovery, I'm also looking to supplement with a hands on exploration of butterfly lifecycle.

With the two kits included in this project, we can observe the lifecycle of critical part of the ecosystem.

All parts of this project ultimately tie together to help make science memorable for 32 5thgraders.
