My Students

Do you remember the first time you looked through a microscope? My students have not yet experienced the thrill of magnified cells! I hope to bring that excitement to my classroom.

My students love Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math.

They can't wait to do Science experiments and inquiry in class. I love to see the joy on their faces when they work in groups and discover new things about Science. They know there is a world full of possibilities in the classroom! My students come for low income homes, and we are a Title I school. My students care about learning, especially in STEM based projects. They are always ready to learn, and show up eager each day. Science and Math is a passion for many of my students. They enjoy our lessons, and working in partnerships and groups with each other. I have "Leaders" in my class, and they are role-models for other students in the class. They truly are remarkable children.

My Project

I am requesting 12 microscopes to use during our Math and Science classes in school. With these microscopes my students will be able to do STEM projects in our classroom. They will better understand the differences between animal and plant cells with the microscope slides. I also hope to use the blank slides with plants we are growing in the classroom. The cells and organisms kit will be a great addition to the centers in our classroom. My students are very independent and love to make new discoveries!

STEM projects are important in building our future leaders in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math.

With this simple project of using microscopes in the classroom, my students will be ready for anything in the future of these areas.
