My Project

The weather station and thermal camera will enable my students and potentially the districts students to receive, review and analyze real time local weather data and compare these data with other local and national locations. The thermal camera will give students the opportunity to use high tech equipment ( to see the unseen) for discussions about energy conservation and heat loss. The goal for the project is to provide equipment and resources that will peak my students interest, motivate and excite them about science, and use tech resources to enrich their educational experience.
