My Project

Please help us create a science closet of essentials for our elementary school students! Our young students are thriving in science this year but could really benefit from additional materials they need to allow science to jump off the page and connect it to real life! These materials will support the beginnings of an epic science closet, including informational and fun books which translate big concepts into manageable learning opportunities, a magnet kit, tuning forks, plant containers for our new plant stand with grow lights, a Teachers Pay Teachers gift card to source new science related resources, as well as other, key necessities.

Every science closet needs the essentials necessary to be able to generate new ideas and foster a love for science!

Science and STEM is critical for building positive communities and teamwork, and by providing our young students with these new materials, we hope to inspire future scientists and truly illustrate that the 'S' in STEM stands for Science!

Mrs. Yee will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by April 1.
