Super Simple Science

My students need science materials and dust free, allergy free sand to explore and learn about themselves and the world around them.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Blaustein's classroom raised $319

My Students

My students are full of wonder and curiosity. They are constantly exploring the world around them and learning new things every day. Pre-K is all about hands-on learning and my students love to dig in with all their five senses.

My students come from all different types of backgrounds and cultures.

Many of them have little or no experience with the world around them. Their parents have limited resources and are unable to buy them educational toys to help them progress and succeed. Their main experience comes from my classroom and the trips I take them on.

Even after 17 years of teaching it still amazes me as I watch them grow and learn. Pre-K students have an amazing ability to soak in information. The growth in their maturity and learning is so rapid. The more we expose them to, the more they grow. The metamorphosis throughout the year is absolutely the most incredible sight I have ever seen.

My Project

This year we have begun to concentrate on the scientific method. I have used an amazing song by Jack Hartmann to excite my students and to begin their journey as scientific thinkers. We are so excited to question the world around us, to hypothesize the answers and test our ideas.

My students need more equipment to test their hypothesis’s and reach amazing conclusions and discoveries.

The materials in this project will make these experiments and discoveries very hands on. They will help my pre-k students develope their ideas and truly understand how the scientific method helps us learn about the world we live in.
