I teach in a neighborhood school in the Logan Square area west of Chicago. Our student population is 90+% low income, predominantly (88%) Hispanic, and from what I am told, some of the sweetest kids you'll meet. While my colleagues, staff, and administration are clearly dedicated professionals that seek the best for their students, our school (as well as nearly all public schools in Chicago) has undergone major budget cuts this year (nearly $200K in total) that make even the most basic requirements for a fully functioning classroom difficult to finance.
I am a new hire and a first year teacher at my school, and inherited a science classroom that does not contain basic science safety requirements. Before the school year even begins, I'm looking to acquire materials that will ensure that students enjoy a safe, educational, and FUN middle school science experience from day one.
