Empowering Science Learning with Modern Vernier Labs
I need Vernier lab manual to create engaging, technology-based science labs that enhance hands-on learning, align with TEKS, and support student understanding in IPC and Physical Science.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Joyce's classroom raised $381

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
As a dedicated high school science teacher working in a Title 1 school, I'm always seeking ways to bring more meaningful, hands-on learning to my students—especially those who struggle with traditional instruction. Our students thrive when they can touch, manipulate, and explore science in action. That’s why I’m seeking support to obtain a Vernier Professional Development Lab Manual and materials that will allow me to create up-to-date, technology-enhanced labs for Integrated Physic and Chemistry and Physical Science .
This professional development resource will help me: Design modern investigations aligned with state standards (IPC TEKS and Physics TEKS).
Incorporate data-collection technology to deepen student understanding.
Develop engaging labs that are accessible to all learners, including those reading below grade level. Expand our current lab offerings with safe, real-world experiments that build scientific thinking and confidence. By investing in this resource, you're helping me grow professionally while also ensuring my students get the best possible experience in science—a chance to do science, not just read about it or do simulations on a computer but hands on investigations.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
