My Project

September 2022 marks the beginning of a new school year, a new classroom, and a whole new group of students! My students this year, are more verbal and academic than classes in the past, so I’m in desperate need of new curriculum and activities, especially SCIENCE! With the Learning Science Activity Tubs, I plan to create a science center where my students can explore concepts such as Rocks & Soil, Plants, Animals, Weather, Insects, Force & Motion, Matter, and the Solar System. I have several students who love to build, so the Design Build Engineering Centers and Building Bricks Stem Challenge will be absolutely perfect for challenging my students to create functional structures while also having fun! Please help fund my project within the next couple of weeks, so I can ensure my classroom is student ready come September!
