Powering Up Science with Technology!

Help me give my students a better Science and STEM learning experience with better technology!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Martin's classroom raised $1,248

This project is fully funded

My Project

My 6th–8th grade science students are bright, inquisitive, and eager to explore the world around them. They come from a low-income community where access to up-to-date technology and resources is limited. Despite these challenges, they show up each day ready to experiment, question, and discover.

To support their learning and bring our science curriculum to life, we need a MacBook for our classroom.

This device will be used for interactive simulations, coding lessons, data collection during experiments, STEM activities, and creating engaging science presentations. A MacBook will also allow me to design more dynamic, multimedia-rich lessons that meet the diverse needs of my learners.
