Science for English Language Learners

Help me give my students science experiments and projects to make learning exciting.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. McAllister's classroom raised $750

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am a new Science teacher who has few materials in my classroom. I would like to have two experiments to run for my Biology and Chemistry classes to help them finish out the year in a fun learning environment.

Newcomers often need hands-on experiences to learn more effectively.

The classroom needs more organization tools to help the students be more efficient with their time while completing procedures.

I am building a supply center for the students to use whenever they are in need of a pencil or piece of paper.

The classroom is in need of insect repellent tools due to the garden outside our windows that attracts bugs.
