My Project

My current 5th grades students have had several learning challenges from Covid. They have exhibited resiliency, adaptability, and an appreciation for in-person learning. My 5th-grade students thoroughly enjoy hands-on learning. Through hands-on activities, students are more engaged in their learning, they have a renewed sense of curiosity, and their learning becomes more memorable.

I am requesting items for each student to dissect an earthworm.

The items I am needing are earthworms and dissecting trays. Through dissecting earthworms, they will engage in a hands-on learning experience about anatomy, biology, and scientific observation. The ultimate goal of this activity is to foster a deeper understanding of living organisms and to promote critical thinking skills.

I am also requesting an electric pencil sharpener for my students. Having a reliable pencil sharpener ensures that students always have access to sharp pencils which promote efficient and neat handwriting. This will also support a conducive learning environment.

Lastly, I am requesting a USB Speaker. The speaker facilitates audio-enhanced learning through multimedia presentations.
