Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

Have you ever wondered why about things? Science opens up a whole new window of whys.

My students are inquisitive, bright third graders.

They attend their neighborhood school. They love their school, and they have great school spirit. Our school is a Title I school and 97% of the students are impoverish, but the students are eager to learn.

My Project

Hands-on activities make learning fun. Students will engage in experiments using science activities, magnets, eyedroppers, magnifiers, thermometers, and writing journals. These tools will help students discover the answers to their questions in a "scientastic" fun way.

By donating to this project, You will help make learning about science fun.

Students will learn how the world works, and You the donor may help a student make the next world discovery.
