Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

How important is Science in the classroom? I teach First grade in a high poverty school. Many of my students do not have learning items at home. Much of what they learn and discover about their world is done in the classroom.

I believe that Science can be exciting for children. I also feel that children, especially young children learn best with hands on discovery. Unfortunately I teach in a school which does not have a budget for Science equipment.

I have been able to supply my Science center with some of the basics for hands on learning. I would really love to add a few microscopes and slides that are geared for primary students. I remember how my own children got excited when they looked in the microscope and discovered what germs and bugs look like up close. I want to bring that same excitement to the children in my classroom. It has been easy for me to collect rocks, however it would be great to have a collection of fossils to add to the center along with a "real" looking volcano instead of the aluminum foil one that I make.

Your donation will make it possible for my students to keep the excitement of Science alive in the classroom. Who knows, maybe one of my students will grow up to be a famous Scientist and discover a cue for a life threatening illness. And to think you could have a hand in this. What a wonderful thought. Your donation would be greatly appreciated.
