My Project
The giftcard to Teachers Pay Teachers will help me buy a bundle of virtual field trips that covers a wide range of grade 3 topics. These virtual field trips will help keep my students engaged, since they are self-paced and incorporate technology. Furthermore, the virtual field trips will help extend learning of such topics in the classroom and make it more meaningful.
This project will unlock virtual field trip experiences, breathing vibrant life into science and social studies curricula.
This project would not only make abstract concepts more tangible and memorable, but also foster a sense of wonder and connection to the wider world, enriching student understanding of scientific principles and social studies narratives in ways that resonate deeply and inspire future exploration,
