Help me give my students more opportunities to learn. I want to provide them with items that they can use to work in my classroom and keep them organized.

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.
I love that most of them are intrigued to learn more about science. I wish I could show them all of what I know, but sometimes that is hard with our limited resources at our school site. Most of my students come from low income families, or multi-generational homes, where they may have other responsibilities at home like watching their little brother/sisters, or working with their parents to help support the family. But...that does not stop them for wanting to learn or gain more knowledge here at school.
This is my 19th year of teaching Chemistry, but I also include geology, physics and astronomy into my lessons because it is what my students want to know more about it.
I love when we get into great conversations about science!
My Project
These items will be used to help my students do some micro labs in my classroom. I also wanted to show them some cool objects that can measure the weather changes we have here locally. I wanted to have enough classroom supplies like markers or bins so that I could allow my students to work in smaller groups of 2-3.
The plastic folders are needed to help my students stay organized.
Many of them did not start the year with a folder to keep their paper in order, so I've currently been using manila file folders.
I also plan on using the file organizer to place copies of our assignments in order for those students who are absent. This will help both them and me!
I love using our extra large whiteboards for group collaboration and the small erasers will allow my students to work easier. I've used small rags in the past and I have to bring those home to wash them quite often.
For one of our labs we use chalk to calculate the numbers of atoms in a mole. The students really enjoy getting to draw in our quad!
I felt like our class wasn't able to move around as much, so I thought the rolling cart stand would allow more students to come to the front of the class to connect to our projector to share their work and/or answers with the class. I also added 2 power strips to allow students in the middle of the class to charge their laptops since they now bring them to class every day.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
