To make Science engaging and easier to understand, we do as many labs as possible. Conducting investigations, collecting evidence, analyzing data and making conclusions is much more interesting than listening to a lecture! **This is my first project so please use code LIFTOFF when donating!** Some of the labs we will conduct are computer simulations. These simulations give students a differentiated look into completing the Scientific Method. Currently we do not have enough technology for students to conduct these investigations on their own, but with your help, these Chromebooks will change that. Having access to Chromebooks in our classroom will allow scholars to deepen their knowledge of different topics in Science by presenting the opportunity to be more accountable for their learning. Chromebooks will allow us to incorporate more blended learning into our classroom while also working on our computer competency literacy skills. Help us be the best we can be! We appreciate all donations!
