My students need these materials to observe forms of energy by building testable wind turbine models!
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Bell's classroom raised $266

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
My students are in an urban district, with every child receiving free lunch due to high poverty, and in a school that is in jeopardy of being taken over by the state. With a huge financial deficit, it makes it impossible to buy supplies directly through our school system.
Many of my kids have learning disabilities and benefit from hands-on activities at different levels, allowing me to differentiate their classwork.
These children deserve the very best to overcome the poverty cycle and allow them to be college-bound!
My Project
I attended a professional development workshop held by the organization called The JASON Project where the hands-on activities, video resources, digital labs and science content covered was incredible. The hands-on activities used the resources I am asking for to create a model wind turbine, testing different amounts of power, cost, mass, voltage, social impacts and aesthetics (how they will look around the state of Connecticut especially on our shoreline) were fun and educational to use! We all had a blast testing our hypotheses!!! A Great learning experience all around! I'd love my students to have the same experience we had in the professional development meeting through the JASON Learning Project organization.
