My Project

We just entered into our hydrosphere unit. This unit is all about WATER. Water distribution, quality, and stewardship. I would like to give my students the opportunity to have a hands on experience and actually test water samples from across the area they live.

Help me bring science to life!

We are in need of testing/lab kit materials to test the bacteria, lead, ammonia, and salinity in the water. Please consider helping these become investigators and scientists by donating. All donations are appreciated, big or small. Thank you for your time.
