My Project

I am asking for a one-year subscription to Kesler Science. Kesler Science is a website that provides a science curriculum for middle school students. Kesler has thousands of activities, lesson plans, escape rooms, inquiry labs, professional development, and other activities. I've used Kesler lessons in the past, and they are incredible but expensive to buy from other sites. Access to the lab will allow me to use all Kesler Science products for an entire year.

I'm most excited about the Escape Rooms because my students love them!

I've purchased a few of these in the past, and my students are always engaged. They are great for both reviewing content before a test and for building a classroom community. I would like to get one for each unit that we do in Science. I also love the Inquiry Labs, where there are instructions for hands-on experiments, complete with student instructions, worksheets, graphs, and lab reports. Kesler also offers sub plans, presentations and guided notes, interactive notebook materials, board games, and science stations for every topic I teach throughout the year. Access to these items will help to improve my science instruction while giving my students fun, meaningful, and inquiry-based activities to enhance their learning.
