Help Mrs. Watson

I currently teach at a low-income school. I teach a class of 21 third graders that are very curious and love to try new things. Many students are below grade level in many areas.

Teaching science can be frustrating, because we don't always have the materials to get students' attention. Trying to get students to understand the human body is difficult with just books. It's also frustrating to teach about plants when we don't really have much light in our trailer to grow them!

When teaching plants it would help to have more materials to extend their learning. The materials in the tubs and kits will not only teach the students, but make them want to be involved with the activities. The human body is already difficult to learn about, so why not have the models and information to show what we're talking about? I can teach and teach all day, but if they can't see some examples it's really difficult for them to make a connection.

Your generous donation will give students the opportunity to apply their knowledge and extend their learning. Now they can hear about the information and then see it for themselves, not just take my word for it. Be the driving force that gives these children the chance they need to be successful!
