My Project

My students learn so much more when they are doing hands-on Science. We explored worms, pillbugs, leaves, and water this year. I would love to be able to give them a different perspective.

I was so excited to show them all kinds of different things in a microscope then I learned that our microscopes went to the Jr.

High. I would love to help them explore things up close and pique their curiosity.

If we had at least one microscope we could do projects in groups and move from one station to the next. I would love to see their faces when they see something they have never seen before.
