My name is Christal! My team and I teach sixth grade science to approximately 450 students in 6-8th grade campus. Though we have classrooms with built in science labs and enough supplies to conduct lab experiments, we have realized that we have been supplied goggles, but not gloves or aprons for the students to protect their hands and bodies. We will be asking students to buy a box of nitrile gloves for the year, but we need help with the aprons.
At the beginning of the year, and throughout, we will be teaching lab safety lessons so that students can always be prepared to put science safety first. Part of that lesson refers to equipment we cannot even show the students. We need protective aprons for each student (a class set) for the year! We want to teach inquiry science and have them experience real science without the concern of liability and safety. We have plans to do experiments with dissection, working with dry ice and other chemical reactions as well as some demonstrations that require small flames (candles) and the plans are on hold until I can get the safety equipment we need. Please help us keep our students safe as they "do" science and experience a love and joy of creating solutions to problems!
