Science Glass for Science Class

Help me give my students the materials needed to perform educational and engaging experiments.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Kilmartin's classroom raised $1,538

This project is fully funded

My Project

Every year, students in grades 5-8 come to science class excited to do experiments. They get even more excited when they see the equipment they potentially will use: items such as beakers, test tubes, graduated cylinders, and more.

Please help us keep the excitement alive by helping us obtain new glassware that will be used for engaging science experiments!

In Grade 5, students will use these materials as they study how the mass of water stays the same in both a solid and liquid state. In 6th grade, students will engage in experiments as they learn about the properties of gases. Lessons such as these will be built upon in grades 7 and 8.

Your donations can help us maintain the students excitement throughout the year! Thank you!
