My Project

My students are curious, resourceful, and fighting against learning loss.

During quarantine, my students suffered significan learning loss.

Now that they have been back in the school building they are making great strides to catch up. However, science has taken a back seat to ELA and Math.

Since science is how the world works, students need extra help. These thermometers and scales for our hands on labs will allow students to grow in their understanding of science concepts such as thermal energy transfer and the laws of conservation of heat, energy, and mass.
