2 Aldine Ninth Grade School Teachers Have Projects Funded by DonorsChoose.org

Two Aldine Ninth Grade School teachers received funding and classroom tools for the projects they submitted to DonorsChoose.org.

Biology teacher Margie Cardenas received funding to purchase molecule and DNA model kits for her project, “Building Blocks of Life Biomolecules.”

“The kits enable the students to construct and visualize the four biomolecules essential for all living things,” said Cardenas.

Leanne Dry, art teacher at the campus, received two iPads for her project entitled “Sharing Art With Technology.”

“I wanted my students to have graphic software and technology to use in order to make creative books, PowerPoint presentations, films, art, and much more,” said Dry.

DonorsChoose.org is an online charity that makes it easy for anyone to help students in need. Public school teachers from every corner of America post classroom project requests on the site, and folks can give any amount to the project that most inspires them. When a project reaches its funding goal, the folks at DonorsChoose.org ship the materials to the school.

Below are images of the teachers and their students.
