Help me give my students access to a 3D printer and take their learning into the 21st Century!
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Gaita's classroom raised $345
This project is fully funded
My Project
The use of a 3D printer will allow students to create scaled up versions of the microscopic world they are being introduced to. Any donations towards this project will allow students to see how engineering can result in a tangible learning experience. The use of the 3D printer will also allow my students to see how science is used outside of the typical style of learning.
By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.
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
