My Project

These kits from National Geographic will allow students to uncover fossils, grow crystals, and conduct experiments of their very own right in our classroom. During Science our students love learning about fossils, rocks and minerals, natural resources, and reactions. Many students have expressed interest in a career within the field of Science and STEM.

These kits will show students how fun it could be to be a Scientist when they grow up!

Science kits will also help students better understand the scientific process and the steps required to complete scientific work better preparing them for a future in Science.

Ms. Montgomery
Grades 6-8
