Help me give my students two chromebooks to help them conduct virtual experiments.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Lopez's classroom raised $585

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 Project
Virtual labs are virtually impossible without laptops. Labs are a great way to bring science to life. Microscopic science suddenly goes from small and barely understandable to big and tangible making learning fun and meaningful for my scholars. Through the use of laptops, my scholars will have access to digital resources that would otherwise not be accessible to them. Topics such as RNA (ribonucleic acid) synthesis are difficult for students to understand. It requires them to visualize something they can't touch or physically see without the help of a laptop and the countless digital resources accessible to them through this technology.
My students will gain a tremendous amount of knowledge if we can access laptops to conduct virtual labs as a way to expose students to a whole new world in science.
In a classroom with a diverse group of learners, my visual learners will be able to master these concepts with the use of virtual labs which are only accessible to them through laptops. Technology is playing a major role in modern teaching and learning. By providing my students with laptops, I will be able to introduce my students to new methods of learning that will enrich their science experience.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
