As I prepare for the

Science Sidekicks
Activities, we (myself and
the 1st & 2nd grade
teachers) ask if any
parents would be willing
to donate items before
we make any purchases.
Many of the lower grade
teacher parents are
willing to donate and
every cohort of parents
varies per grade level. I
have made the supply list
for both activities with
1st and 2nd grade so that
the teacher can use it to
communicate with their
parents what will be
needed and I can also
reach out to my junior

request donations as
well. I will give a brief
description of the activity

just so they are aware of
