My Project

My students must keep up with the latest advancements in education to spark an interest in physics. Education is changing every single day, and so are the interests of my students. Students in my classroom like to explore and build to power their minds. My classroom has to grow, evolve, and make a significant impact on their interest, especially when it comes to physics. My students are passionate about learning more about physics, so this tool, Elenco Electronics Snap Circuits Green: Alternative Energy Kit, can uplift their interest more. Providing them with what they need gives them an avenue to explore more and powers their minds as well.
