  Funded Jan 26, 2024

  We have already set up our computer accessories to use our new headphones, mice, and keyboards! Our Computer Lab is looking great with these new materials!

• Weather Steam Books

  Funded Mar 30, 2023

  I was so pleased to add some Weather books to my Science and STEAM classroom library. I know my students will love these weather books while doing their unit of study on Extreme weather. Students will be able to read these books with partners or on their own. They definitely add to the engagement in this topic. Having engaging books for Science allows students to work on their literacy skills while learning content knowledge in Science. Thank you all so much for your kind donations to this project!”

• Snacks for Concentration 2

  Funded Feb 16, 2023

  Thank you all so much for donating to our class project to bring snacks to my STEAM Lab. The children loved the granola bars, fruit snacks, and pretzels! It was a great treat for them. I really enjoy having the students know they can come to my room if they are feeling hungry. They just have to simply ask for a snack and I can let them choose something to take. I have also found students who get to school late often miss the breakfast served. So, this project has really helped those students get a quick snack to be focused for the day!”

• Science Olympiad STEM Lab

  Funded Dec 6, 2022

  It is with great pleasure that I thank all my donors for supporting my Science Olympiad project! My 7th and 8th Grade students have been hard at work using all the lab and study materials. They especially loved the fingerprinting kit and owl pellet discoveries. These students work with me during an Elective period and we are competing in the Science Olympiad Regional Tournament in March. I know with these materials, they are better prepared for this competition. It has been great sharing these labs and activities with my students!”

• Tri-Fold Boards for STEAM and Science Projects!

  Funded Dec 6, 2022

  Thank you so much for supporting and donating to my project for Science Fair boards. These tri-fold boards are making a great impact on my student's presentation skills. With the boards, students are making STEAM Fair projects using the Engineering Design Process. The boards are a great visual in aiding the students when sharing their work. It was also great to be able to give these boards to my students free of charge. In years past our Title I school students had to pay for them. It was wonderful offering them to all my 3-8th Grade students!”

• STEAM Lab Supplies!

  Funded Sep 29, 2022

  Thank you very much for helping to complete this project for our STEAM Lab supplies! Our Lab is a classroom where over 400 students come in and out of every week. With all this student traffic, it has been so helpful to have these additional supplies.

  We were greatly in need of a new stapler, tape dispenser, and tape. My students have already begun using them for their in class projects. The copy paper has been a great help in printing student work and important documents. We will soon get to use the ziplock baggies and post-it's for our next Engineering project! We are so lucky to have been gifted these supplies! Thank you so much!”
