Investor
Thank you to the following investor for funding this grant.
The St. Joe Community Foundation - $1,500.00
Goal
The goal of the grant money would go to purchasing 10 new monocular microscopes.
What will be done with my students
Science students in all science classes could have the advantage of observing living things and microscopic specimens to make inferences about the scientific world. The microscopes will be used in Biology, Environmental Science, Agriculture, Chemistry, etc. Specimens include tissue, pond water, hair, owl pellets, graphite, etc.
Benefits to my students
Visual and kinesthetic learning strategies are of the strongest categories that students engage in as technology increases. These microscopes would allow students to get a chance at hands on learning as well as visual so that their chances of retention of knowledge would increase.
Budget Narrative
Nine monocular microscopes at 150 each for a total of $1,350.00, with a required 5% Walton Education Foundation admin fee would total $67.50 for a grand total of $1,417.50.
