During the first quarter of the year my students will be learning virtually. This means they will have no access to a lab space of any kind. My hope is to bring the lab to them through my computer so they can see lab experiments in real time. Currently my supply consists of some beakers and graduated cylinders. With my lab cart I would have a science station to put those beakers to use. Using the scale I can show students how to measure, and tare the weights of whatever they are measuring. With the hot plate I can show water changing states of matter from ice, to liquid water, and then to water vapor. Once finished, I can store my supplies safely in the dish rack. Once we're back at school the scales can be used by my students so they can apply what they've learned at home back to the classroom.
These supplies will ensure that my students will be ready for labs in high school and college. This will help inspire them to become scientists and prepare them for what they will see in higher education. Furthermore students will be able to witness and later safely participate in hands on learning. These fundamental skills will be useful to them not only in future science classes but in life. Working together, measuring, conducting observations, and analyzing results are not exclusive to the field of science. These tools can help them with life lessons that will follow them past my classroom.
