Visualizing Life Science!

Help me give my students visual representation of life science with these items!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Butler's classroom raised $494

This project is fully funded

My Project

Help me provide the tools to transform how my students visualize and understand the life sciences! By incorporating model kits of cells, my students will gain hands-on experience in constructing cells, enabling them to see and understand the intricate structures and functions of cellular components. Additionally, by providing skulls from different species, students will have the opportunity to examine evolutionary similarities and differences firsthand. These tools will not only enhance their comprehension of biological concepts but also foster critical thinking and a deeper appreciation for the diversity of life. Your support will make a significant impact on their learning journey and spark a lifelong interest in the sciences.
