Science Lab Classroom Supplies

Help me give my students the supplies we need for our science classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Wipf Starr's classroom raised $2,220

This project is fully funded

My Project

This grant request includes materials for many of our labs in our 6th, 7th, and 8th-grade science class. The supplies will be used for various science labs and experiments this year and for the general classroom environment. We are ordering materials to build Newton's Cradles in 8th grade. The digital scales are to be used in our 7th-grade chemistry labs. The 3D pen filament is for constructing our cell models in 6th grade using our 3D pens. There are poppers for a physics lab, mats for use during projects, and tape for various labs, projects, and such. We have batteries for our flashlights, food coloring for labs, and two folding tables for when we need additional surface space or to display projects in our hallway.

Having the supplies we need is essential for success in any class, but especially for hands-on science activities.

Many of the other supplies requested are used throughout the year during our science labs, but also for student use throughout the regular school day. We have also included playground equipment for students to use during recess and various other general classroom supplies.
