Help me give my students a fun, hands-on science project about chemical reaction. We will be using the mini-notebooks to write a step-by-step instruction manual for making LAVA LAMPS! The other materials assist us in creating these books!

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
Give this project a boost!
A chain reaction of support starts with one share.
My students are a fun-loving, hard-working, and motivated group of fifth graders. We are diverse, with both English and Spanish as well as dialects, such as Mayan, being spoken in our classroom. Your funding will help us in so many ways!
When you walk into our classroom, a sense of kindness, love of learning, family and strong community are some of the things you feel.
We love each other deeply, we are each other's biggest fans, and we hold each other to high standards.
While we all make mistakes, we know that mistakes help us learn, make us stronger, and help us grow! We are a lively, loving, and hard-working bunch, and we can't wait for you to get to know us!
My Project
One of my students actually sent this idea to me as something "that we could do when we learn about chemical reactions."
These materials will help make my students learning fun and meaningful.
The oil will be used with the alka seltzer tablets to create their own lava lamps in the plastic bottles. The food coloring will help them add colors of all kinds to their oil. When they run out of bubbles, they can simple add another alka seltzer! The gel pens and notebooks are for the kids to make their own step-by-step instruction manuals for "Make Your Own Lava Lamp." The pencil sharpener is for our whole class to use. Ours just broke.
More than half of students from low‑income households
