What Matters Most: Exploring Atoms & Molecules

Help me give my students what matters most! Atoms are the building blocks of everything, and the EXPEPE Molecular Kit, along with the Atoms, Electrons, and Energy Kit, will help them learn chemistry hands-on while meeting state standards.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. O'Gorman's classroom raised $824

My Project

My students are curious, creative thinkers who love to explore the "why" behind the world around them. As a Title I school, hands-on materials are limited, but their excitement for learning never is! I love how willing they are to dive into new topics, ask deep questions, and support each other as they learn. They thrive when they can see and touch what they’re studying, and that’s especially true in science, where abstract concepts like atoms and energy come to life through experience.

Unlocking the mysteries of matter, my students will use the EXPEPE Chemistry Molecular Kit and the Atoms, Electrons, and Energy Kit to build molecules, explore atomic structure, and bring chemistry to life!

These hands-on tools are aligned with Oklahoma state standards and will help reinforce chemistry concepts in a way that’s memorable and meaningful. With these resources, my students will be able to engage more deeply in science and build a strong foundation in chemistry through active, minds-on learning.
