My Project

My students are eager to do hands on experiments in science. They also have a love for graphic novels and manga. I would go to the end of the Earth to give my students a memorable 5th grade experience.

Please help me provide microscopes and slides to engage their curious minds and books that will help them escape to new worlds full of wonder.

I like to incorporate hands on activities and labs with my teaching as often as possible.

I am excited to introduce new hands-on materials and equipment so the students can learn from engaging activities.

Mrs. Engman
Grades 3-5
