Supplies for Science

Help me give my students supplies for their time in the science classroom to be successful.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hotchkin's classroom raised $344

My Project

These materials will help my 6th and 7th-grade students finish the year off strong! These supplies will help them make the most of my classroom. Starting 6th grade can be scary for some students as they move on from just one teacher in 5th grade, so having enough materials for all of my students to be successful is a necessity! My 7th graders are experiencing different units and I need more hands-on material to keep them entertained.

All of these materials will directly benefit my students.

My 7th graders will soon be studying chemical reactions and the "Mystery Chemical Reaction" kit will give them a chance to apply everything they will learn. My 6th graders are used up most of their notebook and need to get another one so they can tape in and keep track of all of their papers.

Please help support my students by making my classroom a place where they don't have to worry about not having enough supplies and knowing that what they do have will allow them to become blossoming scientists.
