Science in Our Hands: Explore, Discover, and Organize!

Help me give my students hands-on science activities and organizational bins to keep materials easily accessible, allowing them to explore, experiment, and stay engaged in their learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Silver's classroom raised $712

This project is fully funded

My Project

I love how curious and creative my students are! They learn best when they can explore, ask questions, and discover answers through hands-on experiences.

With STEM booklets, interactive science kits, properties of earth and electricity activity tubs, and book bins, my students will be able to engage actively with 4th grade science standards in a fun, interactive, and meaningful way.

The booklets will challenge students to think critically and solve real-world problems, while the activity tubs and kits will bring science concepts to life. The book bins will help keep all these new materials organized and easy to access.

Your support will help create a classroom where every student feels like a real scientist-- exploring, experimenting, and building lifelong love for discovery!
