Hear It! Speak It! Win It! Science and Engineering
My students need 17 over-the-ear headphones for "Research It" and "Watch It" stations in my 5E classroom.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Martin's classroom raised $157

My Students
My students come from mixed backgrounds of single-parent, traditional family, mixed family, and foster or grandparent care. Common to all, however, is the desire to be given the opportunity to explore and discover critical-thinking skills needed by all as they transition from being the students of today to the leaders of tomorrow. My students are ambitious, kind, and ready to learn cross-cutting science and engineering concepts. Your donation will provide resources for these students I love. We are currently working with the 5E lesson structure that includes inquiry-based labs and interactive notebooks. The final key needed is consistent technology in my classroom.
My Project
My students have been given an opportunity to explore the world of science and engineering through other DonorsChoose projects that have funded a 1:1 ratio of technology in my classroom. I have interactive rotating labs that require students to engage in different learning modality stations. Each station serves a purpose to build on the engagement and enrichment of the subject. The headphones will serve a great purpose in the watch it stations where students will engage in a short video to explain the topic we are studying. Right now we are watching these videos as a class and I feel they are losing the independence this station could provide. The headphones will allow a fully engaged student-led lesson.
Half of students from low‑income households
