My Project

The science materials that I am asking for will help expand the love of science. My students will have assorted items to explore and stay focused while learning.

My goal for this project is to add more hands-on materials to keep them engaged in science.

They love using the talking microscope, and it would be exciting to them if I added more assorted slides to expand their learning in science. I love watching my students use their imagination in science. We have limited materials for them to explore. My students are special because their little minds absorb so much, and with your donation, you can help expand their curiosity and learning.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
