Help me give my students STEM kits that focus on optical light and physics.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Volk's classroom raised $279
This project is fully funded
My Project
The purpose of the Young Scientist Club is to provide an innovative, learning experience to help elicit excitement in STEM and to enhance the classroom instruction. Most children love science, however there are minimal resources at the elementary level that help refine and cultivate a student’s scientific mindset. The club is designed to bring unique educational experiences consisting of hands-on, interactive activities as the students focus on various scientific concepts. The Young Scientist Club allow students the opportunity to move around the room performing various activities and experiments that enhance their learning.
The donations of STEM kits will provide my students with activities and experiments that will help make real-life connections.
The activities also provide a fun, engaging way to comprehend science concepts. These activities and experiments will change my students' lives will create lifelong educational memories.
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
