My Project

Hi there! My name is Toni Hartman. I am beginning my teaching career this upcoming school year in the School District of Philadelphia. I am lucky enough to be teaching middle school science to sixth, seventh, and eighth grade. As a first year teacher, I want to supply my students with everything they need to have a fun and hands-on school year in science. These materials will help me to create a hands-on laboratory environment to help my students succeed. All of the items that I have included are materials listed on the curriculum that are currently needed. Science is so interesting during these years and I want to provide my students with the best possible materials to learn! My students will be learning earth and space science, life sciences, and physics. My students come from all different backgrounds with varying levels of experience and support from home. I want to provide my students with the ability to be engaged in their science curriculum and learn that science is fun! Thank you so much for your interest in my students! We are so grateful for this opportunity.
