  • A Comfortable Community Space!

    Funded Mar 1, 2021

    We are so excited to return to school with the materials to create a comfortable and comforting classroom environment! More than ever, students need to co-create the space and make it work for them, and the resources we have allow them to do this.

    Students are developing research skills while building independence. They are making the choices that work for them when it comes to partnerships and seating arrangements, and what materials will best serve their individual learning style. These resources demonstrate to students that we respect their comfort and value coming together as a community, which only supports their learning and growth.

    We are so appreciative, and we are so glad to have this space to learn together.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Jaclyn Maricle

  • The Magic of Science - but Make It Remote!

    Funded Aug 31, 2020

    Thank you so much for contributing to my remote classroom. My students have been learning science remotely for the last three months, and your contributions allowed me to do inquiry activities, demonstrations, and the kinds of high-quality lessons I would do if I were with my students in the classroom.

    For example, using glassware and tech equipment from this project, I extracted DNA from strawberries for my students over Zoom. Students were amazed and were able to attach a tangible image to a concept that is very abstract for 8th graders. I used density blocks and bridge sets to demonstrate Newton's laws of motion, and have done read-alouds with the books I received. Student engagement and participation in our remote science classes is high - we have students excitedly commenting in the chat, un-muting themselves to predict what will come next in an inquiry, and discussing the results of experiments in breakout rooms. Despite the distance, it feels as close to being in the classroom as possible. Thank you for helping to preserve the wonder of science for my students!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Jaclyn Maricle

    This classroom project was brought to life by Con Edison and 12 other donors.
I will be teaching my middle school science class remotely until January. I chose these materials to replicate our bustling, vibrant classroom as closely as possible in a remote environment. The methods for in-person and remote learning may be different, but engagement, curiosity, and discovery can be the same. By donating to this project, you are helping to create a virtual classroom for middle school students that engages them every day in the wonder of science: researching big questions, conducting experiments, and discovering the mysteries of the world around them. I'm going to use the triple beam balance and glassware to teach students measurement remotely. Some of the materials are for demonstrations that students will observe as part of their inquiry process, like density blocks or Newton's cradle. The books are some student favorites from our class library, and we'll use them for reading and research instruction. Finally, I'm dealing with eighth graders, who have watched enough YouTube to be connoisseurs of video content. The microphone, camera, and laptop stand will increase the quality of our class time together, whether I'm live or recording. I cannot wait for the day that students can use these materials together in our brick and mortar classroom. But until then, these materials will help middle schoolers succeed as students and scientists in a remote learning environment.
