There are some wonderful, bright-eyed and eager-to-learn students in the southeastern corner of Michigan who are waiting for your discovery. These inner city, multi-culturally diverse elementary and middle school students love learning and would love to have a chance to thank you for helping them make their school year a bit easier for learning new things. I am the science teacher for these children and personally know their love for learning and their frustration when they need things they simply do not have. We have been working on learning the facets of the scientific process and want to create detailed journals, accurate data logs and use them for science fair, GLOBE and other projects.
