For this donation, I would like to purchase reference science posters and order some consumable materials like Owl Pellets. Science posters are very expensive but it is worth having this reference for students. Teaching science comes with a responsibility to create lessons that drive students' natural sense of inquiry. One of my favorite lessons is exploring owl pellets. The bones they find inside are always a surprise and it becomes a little bit of a competition. The owl pellets and posters will be a welcome addition to my classroom this year. I'm thankful to anyone who is able to help fund this project.
