  • Eye Models

    Funded Dec 20, 2024

    I have over 300 students in a school where they are doing reading and writing all day long to help them get on grade level. When they come to science, while they are still expected to learn, it is a small escape for the students. They absolutely love every second of the labs we do in class. We were able to do fun activities like creating models of eyeballs.

    I have a lot of students so having enough materials really went a long way. This has been a tremendous help!

    Thank you so much for helping make this a reality!”

  • Colorful Observations!

    Funded Dec 7, 2024

    I have over 300 students in a school where they are doing reading and writing all day long to help them get on grade level. When they come to science, while they are still expected to learn, it is a small escape for the students. They absolutely love every second of the labs we do in class. We were able to do fun activities like rock cycle and water cycle.

    Most of the time, they have to share the sorting cards or informational pictures, and with the laminating, I am able to make copies for everyone and then just reuse. This has been a tremendous help!

    Thank you so much for helping make this a reality!”

  • Reduce Waste!

    Funded Nov 5, 2024

    I have over 300 students in a school where they are doing reading and writing all day long to help them get on grade level. When they come to science, while they are still expected to learn, it is a small escape for the students. This yer we are taking a very real look at the environment and what small changes we can make to help. By using reusable water bottles, we can do a small part to reducing plastic waste. The students are really eager to start the small changes as soon as possible.

    Thank you so much for helping make this a reality!”

    They learned all about stars in this unit and have a greater understanding of how vast our universe can be. I love giving the students an opportunity for hands on fun.

I am a teacher of 20 years and for the past few years I have been teaching Science to the 3rd and 4th graders. Most of my lessons are hands on which keep the students engaged and questioning the world around them. However, now that we are mostly remote, the students have to rely on computer programs, videos and my demonstrations to learn science. The last 2 units of this school year are: 3rd: Forces 4th: Magnetism and Electricity. As you can imagine, that is going to be hard to teach online. However, I am looking to make little take home kits for the students so that when I do a lesson, they can be doing it at home at the same time. The challenge is in getting kits to about 250 students. I am looking for donations so that each kid can have a set of electricity kits (circuit, bulb, battery, alligator wires). I would love to have the students use real science materials at home!
