My Project

My precious kindergarten students are the most curious, observant, and eager scientists. With that in mind, I am working hard to create a robust STEM area in my classroom that will keep my young scientists interest piqued all year long. I currently have a smaller microscope, but would love to get them this microscope with a digital screen to help them see what they are observing even better.

"Microscopes are important for student engagement because they provide hands-on, experiential learning that ignites a sense of wonder and builds natural curiosity.

Exploring new possibilities in and outside the classroom gives students a greater appreciation of the complexity and beauty of natural structures they could never have seen in such depth before" (foldscope.com).

My incredible students deserve the very best I can provide for them! With your help I can bring this very cool learning tool into our classroom to benefit students for years to come.
