Help me give my students a quality classroom digital microscope to be used with our projector so we can view specimen slides together and make science come to life!
My 5th grade students love hands-on science learning and exploring the world around them. As learners in a Title I public elementary school in Hawaii, more than 3/4 come from low-income households. Many have never had the opportunity to visit science museums or use microscopes to better understand their world. I aspire to engage them in science lessons that magnify both their view of their world and their curiosity. Having a digital microscope that connects to our classroom laptop and projector will enable me to share specimen slides while teaching. Thank you!
More than half of students from low‑income households
