My Students

For excellent learning to take place takes a passion on the part of the student. What better way to inspire passion than through awesome demonstrations and hands on learning? Our classroom will be much more engaging with new science supplies.

Our students are the next generation of scientists.

What better way to help them on their journey than with spectacular science supplies that will guide them in real world application? The students will be challenged and enjoy the subject area while learning about our world.

My Project

My theme for the resources I have requested is Spectacular Science. Using these materials in our classroom will enrich the education of our students while demonstrating the real world applications. I have requested various biology and chemistry materials to give students a chance to explore forensic chemistry, the life cycle of a butterfly, genetics and heredity and cellular division. I have also requested extra study materials to help those students who may struggle with concepts in science.

This project is important for our students so they will have materials that motivate learning, have real world application and provide a rigorous, and fun, way to learn science.

Donations for this project will give a tremendous gift to our students.
