Mad Scientists

Help me give my students the opportunity to explore the world they live in. These supplies, especially the water testing kits, will give the students an opportunity to do some hands on testing!

My Project

Most of my students have never been outside the urban environment they live in, much less have thought about the natural world they live adjacent to.

My students care about the world they live in, though.

Many are passionate about pollution and it's implications. With the water testing kits, we can explore different kinds of water bodies and their health. As a former water quality scientist, it's just a bonus to share my passion with my students.

My students love hands on activities and will enjoy the labs these supplies will give the opportunity for.

Ms. K.
Grades 9-12
