My students need circuits for series and parallel circuits to understand how they work. It's not enough to look at a video or read a magazine. The students need actual hands on exploration.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. H.'s classroom raised $594
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
I love the students enthusiasm! The students are very humble and very respectful! I teach in a rural community and many of the students work on a farm or on a ranch. Many of the students are being raised by grandparents, aunts, and uncles. The students know the value of an education and do whatever possible to learn. They stay after school and even come into school on Saturdays. 100% of the students in my classroom receive free lunch. Every student appreciates their teachers.
My Project
Safety first! Students need to understand that as you enter the science lab, safety is first. We would use the safety glasses donated in order to understand the importance of safety in the lab. Secondly we would use the circuits to understand series and parallel circuits in the classroom. This would be important for all students to understand by using hands on activities versus learning from pictures and videos on a computer screen. It's important that the students understand the real world experiences to understand science safety. Using the materials needed will help them understand many real world uses for circuits.
This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
