Scientists Need Their Supplies For Their Mysteries

Help me give my students all the materials they need for our science curriculum program.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Deng's classroom raised $420

This project is fully funded

My Project

This year my classroom is using Discovery Ed's Mystery Science program. These are the items needed for the remainder of the year to accompany our Mystery Science curriculum program. Mystery Science provides standards based, hands on experiments and activities. The students love Mystery Science. In order to use this engaging program I will need to gather the materials that are needed for each experiment. Some items I already have, but the rest are on this grant.

Please help me get these hands on science materials so that we can have engaging science happening on a regular basis in our classroom.

This year students learning will be drive by phenomena.

What clothes do foundry works wear to stay safe? Why does this river have two colors? What is causing this tiny poop? and why does the super bloom occur?
