Ms Duke's DONORS CHOOSE

UPDATE:
I AM HAPPY TO ANNOUNCE THAT MS DUKE'S DONORS CHOOSE PROJECT IS COMPLETED.   PHEW!   I WAS A BIT NERVOUSE BUT ONCE AGAIN PARENTS STEPPED UP AND IN THE CASE OF BOTH MS DUKE AND MR. SOLOMON WE HAD SOME SPECIAL ANGELS TAKE THE BALL ACROSS THE FINAL LINE.
THANK YOU, EVERYONE FOR HELPING.


Is your child a student in Ms Duke's class?
Did your child have Ms Duke last year?

If you don't know Ms Duke and your child never had her--Do you appreciate science?

Ms Duke is working hards to make science "live and breathe" for her  8th Grade Science & 10th Grade Chemistry students and she needs our help.

She needs basic items to help her classes.  Seriously basic--like pens and bright paper and colored pencils.  She has posted her needs on DONOR's Choose.

One of the greatest skills our students are lacking are study skills. A science interactive notebook is a great tool to use. Interactive notebooks help with students' organization, but they are also a creative way to engage students to process information and demonstrate critical thinking. At the end of the year, the students will have a working portfolio that can be assessed to show what they have learned throughout the school year.

In our list we have added different colored pens, papers, colored pencils so that students can use them to show their creative side. By having these resources students can demonstrate what they know and organize their information in a creative way. We have also asked for pencils, glue sticks, and scissors because a lot of class time is lost when we have to share our materials. Our students have procedures to make the class run smoothly while working on their notebooks. Unfortunately, a lot of class time is lost and limits our learning time.

In order to get her needs fulfilled we need people to donate whatever they can.  If you can donate $10 great.  If you can donate $30, great.   If you can donate $100,  great.   If all of us step up we can help Ms Duke realize this great cause--engaging LACES students in Science.
