    Thanks for all the help I can't believe that I'm onto project 3 from the same round of donations! GE really came through with the matching donations and all the parents were super generous. I can't thank you enough but I will try. Now let's get learning!”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Proto

    Funded Nov 9, 2021

    This was great, you're all the best donors a teacher can ask for. These materials will ensure that the students can have a fun and exciting. . . as well as educational STEM experience. I'll be sure to get the Thank You Package up in time and I'll see you then.”

  • Racing Towards a Better STEM Education

    Funded Nov 1, 2021

    Wow! Thanks so much everyone. This was my first Donors Choose and I really didn't know what to expect. I DEFINITELY didn't expect it getting funded in less than 12 hours! I can't wait to get these racers into the hands of our students and I'm sure they'll be just as excited.”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Proto

    This classroom project was brought to life by Con Edison and 5 other donors.
As the STEM teacher for every grade in my school, I strive to bring challenging hands-on activities into each classroom so that students can build grit, teamwork skills, and improve their problem solving abilities. These materials will enable my students to design and test their own race cars while learning about force, motion, and the engineering process. as well as learning about force and motion, my students will test different car builds in order to learn about data collection and analysis. PlusPlus is an amazing building tool that can be used for many other activities besides this one project. Their durability ensures that they won't just be beneficial to my students this year but for years to come. Along with the PlusPlus for building race cars, I am asking for magnetic building sticks so that students can design a race course and the index cards and pipe cleaners will be used to build towers and skyscrapers.
