Help Us See the Big Picture

My students need to be able to view "close-up" science activities as well as documents in my classroom. A document camera would greatly benefit them.

Hooray! This project is fully funded

My students need a better view of the awesome activities that we do. I teach fourth grade reading, science and social studies in a high need community.

I am completing many hands-on and brain based activities with my students. It would be extremely helpful to be able to demonstrate, using a document camera, so that every student would get a detailed view of the activity.

A document camera would save an enormous amount of instructional time, as well as give students a better view of the activities and assignments we are completing. I have an LCD projector that would work perfectly with this type of camera.

Through your donations, you will be increasing the quality of instruction for every student in my classroom. A document camera will make it possible for my students to get a better view of all activities and lessons taking place.
