What's the Matter? Hands-On Equipment for Exploring Matter and Energy

Help me give my students hands-on tools to help them better visualize and understand matter!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Scofield's classroom raised $936

My Project

I am constantly looking for creative ways to give my students hands-on experiences with the material they are learning about.

Some of the hardest concepts for my students to understand are the ones that they can't see.

Matter and Energy are two extremely important concepts my students learn about in 8th grade. Being able to purchase this equipment will help me bring some important concepts like energy transfer and atom, element, and molecule composition to life with my students. I am especially stoked about the magnetic atom builder and the vacuum chamber as I know these will blow my kids' minds!
