Corny Genetics
Funded Jul 13, 2024I am thrilled to express my deepest gratitude for your generous contributions to our "Corny Genetics" project. Thanks to your support, our students now have access to a hands-on kit that brings Mendelian genetics to life in an engaging and interactive way.
Seeing my students light up with understanding as they dig into a concrete real world genetics example has been incredibly rewarding. They are now able to grasp complex concepts through hands-on activities, making learning both fun and meaningful. Your generosity has made a significant impact on their educational journey, fostering a deeper understanding and higher order thinking. My students and I are immensely grateful for your support and for helping us create such a valuable learning experience. Thank you for making a difference in the lives of my students.”

Funded May 8, 2024This project was a huge success, marking a significant milestone in our educational journey. The introduction of the microscope for demonstration purposes played a crucial role in this achievement. It enabled students to independently and accurately test their Monarch butterflies for OE (Ophryocystis elektroscirrha) before releasing them into the wild. This hands-on experience not only enhanced their understanding of the scientific process but also instilled a sense of responsibility and care for the environment. The students' ability to conduct these tests on their own demonstrated their growing competence and confidence in scientific inquiry.
Witnessing my students' excitement and engagement throughout the project was incredibly rewarding. Their enthusiasm was contagious as they worked diligently, applying their knowledge and skills to real-world scenarios. The sight of them successfully completing the tasks independently was a testament to your generosity.”
