My Project

I would love to be able to do more hands-on projects and science-based labs with my students. I was able to do one project with them; however, I had to pay for materials myself so we have been unable to do more.

I am asking for science kits, labs experiments, and a butterfly kit that has all materials needed to complete the project so the students can receive the best experience possible, and we don't have to stress about whether or not we have the materials for our lab.

So, I am asking for different types of science activity kits. At my school, we don't have an art teacher so I am responsible for teaching art to my students. However, I don't have enough art materials to do so.

Additionally, I am asking for some art materials and supplies. In the past, I have been able to ask families for donations but this year and last that was not an option due to families being out of work because of COVID.

Last, for the younger students I teach, I need more phonics learning activities for them to learn effectively. I am asking for support in this area by receiving the accelerated learning phonics kit. I want my students to be able to have experiences that other students and schools have and not be limited because of money loss due to covid. They are already limited as it is with their home lives. I want to provide opportunities to them that they will remember forever! Every donation counts! Thank you.
