Comprehensive STEM Project

Help me give my students 3D pens to bring what is in their mind to reality!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Appling's classroom raised $453

This project is fully funded

My Project

So often many parts of science are abstract to our students. We learn and conduct experiments in class. But we are limited. Having these resources will drastically change Science for our students. These 3D pens will help bring what's in our students minds to reality. They will be able to complete experiments and build things just to start, the possibilities are endless! These pens will open an entirely new world for the students that they can expand on. Students will have the control to decide what their next steps will be in experiments, in activities and learning. They will then be able to see how their interactions and decisions affect their experiments or creations.
