Ms. Crandall from Manchester NH is requesting art supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

With a Swish and a Swoop, We Have Science

Help me give my students supplies to make the projects become better. They present a lot of their projects so the poster boards, markers, pencils would really help make their presentations stand out.

My Students

I teach STEAM classes with amazing students. STEAM is an educational approach to learning that uses Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics as access points for guiding student inquiry, dialogue, and critical thinking. The end results are students who take thoughtful risks, engage in actual learning, persist in problem-solving, welcome collaboration, and work through the creative process. These are the innovators, educators, leaders, and learners of the 21st century.

"A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove... but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child."

These students are our future. I want to be able to give them a better education to prepare them for the world outside of school.

My Project

Students are doing projects in the class at least 1-3 times in a month. These would provide them the tools to make their projects even better. Students will use their technology to create an amazing project but these supplies are needed with the project to make it better.

my students made an advertisement about rockets and newton's laws.

Some choose to do a commercial, some choose to make a banner, and others choose to do a podcast. Each of them needed paper, poster, some needed paint (even in the commercial), and even some tissue, they all need to write ideas down and brainstorm, and they need markers for part of their project to make unique. These supplies takes the students work and brings it to an even better quality of work.

My students also do a lot of hands on lab work. With each lab we do comes clean up. Which is why I asked for the disinfected wipes and dish soap. Lastly, I want my students to be able to enjoy their labs feeling safe. My science classroom doesn't not have a first aid kit. I had one student get cut by glass this year and I had nothing to help clean up until I could get him to the nurse (on the bottom floor across the school).
