Project Goal

The goal would be to have supplies to complete investigations allowing students to build a deeper understanding their science standards through hands on activities.

How Project Benefits Students

In order for students to understand their science standards, they must be able to participate in hands on activities. The supplies I have requested will help with multiple units covering at least 10 different standards. All investigations (activities) will be facilitated by the teacher to ensure students are completing the investigation correctly.

Expected Outcome(s)

According to our beginning of the year assessment, only 8% of our 5th grade students were proficient in their 4th grade standards. This means that 92% of our 5th grade students are not proficient in below grade level standards. I believe by making science more hands on, our 8% should increase to at least 50%.

Detailed Cost Summary

All of these items will be used in different investigations covering multiple science units.
