My students need a portable weather station to monitor, record, and predict the weather up to one month, as well as basic science materials and leveled text for informational reading.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Parker's classroom raised $627
This project is fully funded
My Students
Our class has 27 eager minds thirsting for knowledge and love of science. These 27 minds are eager to apply their skills they have learned in science and enhance their learning of energy. This project will impact the entire grade level at J B. Ninety students will benefit from this donation!
Our school is located in the suburbs of Salt Lake, Utah and has 48% of students on free and reduced lunch.
Forty-eight percent of the school population rents housing or lives with relatives.
My Project
Students will use the materials to discover how "Water is on the Move" in our environment. We will use the leveled text to read about atom formation, the unique qualities of water, and how weather around them affects their environment. All readers will be successful at their reading level.
The basic science supplies of temperature guns, a mobile weather station, plastic containers, water containers, food coloring, gum drops, and toothpicks will assist students in hands-on science experiments to model, observe, and describe energy and weather.
Students will record their observations in their science notebooks and demonstrate how water is unique through experiments.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
