My Project

With access to these rocks, minerals, and fossils countless middle school girls will be able to take on the role of being a geologist. Students will have the opportunity to experience on a smaller scale what the professionals do in their respective fields. As a science teacher in an all-girls school, my main mission is to provide students with the best education possible to help inspire, support and empower young women to join STEM fields. With these supplies, the girls can get more first-hand experience with science and gain the hands-on experience that helps them learn best.
