Help Mrs. Cooper

I am an eight grade science teacher working in a Title I school where 80% of the enrolled students are on free and reduced lunch. Science class is supposed to be filled with inquiry based learning. I try to incorporate this type of learning and teaching in my class to keep the students however because of lack of equipment it is very difficult. One lab that I love to do is called "How boiling water and water temperature are affected by salt". I usually have to do a demonstration for the students because I only have one probe. However the lab would be more effective if the students could do the actual lab. There are many activities that I have lined up for the students involving the probe, such as hold everything comparing insulators and melting water changes states. There are many more to be utilized but unfortunately they will all have to be demonstrations. It is important that students be able to do labs dealing with temperature changes, how temperature affects solids, liquids and gases. These are basic experiments that all students should experience and I would love to be the teacher to share the experience with them. Thank you so much in giving me the opportunity to offer exciting and new labs to my classes now and in the future classes. The material that I am requesting is a Go Temperature teacher pack (order # GT-TP) a pack of eight probes and other vital materials to start temperature labs. There is also a Middle School lab book (order # MSC-LP) that will give me the teacher more ideas for the probes.
