My Project

I would like to provide my students with some science experiments and projects that they would probably not get to experience any place else. My goal is to use these projects and materials to give students a chance to see and touch science for themselves. Many of my students are from low income house holds and will not get a chance to experience some things outside of school. These materials will give them the opportunity to see and touch science!! I am hoping to start a love for science in my classroom!
