My Project

Please help me give my students the best Science Fair. I teach science at an elementary school in Brooklyn. My mother was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer 5 years ago. For the last 2 years, we have dedicated our school science fair to her and she was able to attend. Sadly she passed away this summer. Although she is greatly missed, we want to keep the science fair dedicated to her going strong. This year will be our first science fair she will not be in person but she will be here in spirit.

These materials will help my kindergarten through fifth-grade students have a magical science fair.

This year will include new labs and a new class.

Please help me keep the spirit of my mother alive at school by continuing an amazing science fair dedicated to her for these amazing young children.

We have a bearded dragon as a class pet. He needs a bigger home which will be on display in the classroom at the science fair. The poster boards will be used to display the student's work at the fair. The hot wheelset will be used to demonstrate the difference between kinetic and potential energy.
