My Project

Students are so curious and cannot wait to do investigations! They are thrilled when it is time to do a lab. They want to be scientists! The Teachers Pay Teachers gift cards will provide students with engaging activities while teaching them the scientific method.

They have grade-level labs that peak students’ curiosity and provide them with the opportunity for inquiry-based research.

I am requesting gift cards to acquire writing support, along with the science program, to give students a systematic approach to informative and research writing. The combination will help students improve their writing skills, while engaging in experiments to learn about their world.
