My Project

Please help me get ten STEAM science kits to allow my students to create new lab experiments that are age-appropriate. This is important to support our grade-level science text and activities in class.

Since the CDC guidelines restrict the sharing of materials, providing a kit for every student is vital, to ensure that all students have equal access to what we are doing in science class.

My students will use the science kits to create and conduct science experiments. Science kits are made for students to explore and learn about scientific concepts and have fun with experiments. Since the requested kits are specifically for children, these will be perfect for my 3rd-grade students to use during science class.

My students will use these science kits to engage in science experiments in real-time/physically, during science.

Science can be so exciting, and these hands-on activities from these requested science lab kits that my students will use during science will show them that!

The goal is that my students learn, explore and understand the core science concepts covered in the 3rd-grade science curriculum: matter, sound, and simple machines, to name a few.

I am requesting ten 30-project science lab kits that will help my students explore various science topics in 3rd grade.
