These materials and supplies that I am requesting will be used to introduce my students to the basic properties of electronics and programming. They will be used to teach the fundamentals behind circuitry and how circuits are used in all of the technological devices we use today. By giving my students an opportunity to actually see how a basic computer function through these simple circuit boards will empower my students to be creative, problem solvers, and interested in programming. This Circuit Playground board will be the next step toward a perfect introduction to what I am trying to implement in my Computer Science class. The circuit board is packed with features that make it brilliant for the first step towards an active hands-on programming environment such as writing code for microprocessors (mini-computers than can control hardware components such as LEDs, sensors, motors, and buzzers). Gone are the days where students are just playing on electronic devices, but are actually creating the next apps or games. Your donations to this project will help to improve my students' understanding and interest in coding. Therefore, by providing these circuit boards, my students will begin to see themselves as coders instead of gamers. These materials will be used to help my students to be 21st-century learners. As the teacher, I am eager to implement this learning opportunity in my class. Therefore, I truly need your support to make this a reality. Thanks!
