  • A Class Set of Stop Watches to Reduce Smartphone Use

    Funded Jul 23, 2024

    Wow, I am simply overwhelmed by the generosity of the people who have come onto donors, choose and decided to support my classroom.

    Thank you all so much from the bottom of my heart. This is going to make many of my labs run so so much more smoothly and provide more hands-on opportunities to my students again thank you all so so much.”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Miller

  • Balancing Minerals and Mass.

    Funded Sep 11, 2023

    Wow, thank you so much for your amazing generosity. I really didn't expect to have these materials until next year.

    One thing I noticed over the last few years is that many of my students have lived a very screen-oriented life with little experience handling simple objects like a hammer or a measuring spoon. Part of the objective of behind these materials is to teach concepts like mass and density, but another part is to habituate them to handling objects in the physical world. Your generosity will make this possible.

    Thanks you again for your generosity.”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Miller

  • More but Smaller lab Groups

    Funded Dec 8, 2021

    Thank you so much for funding my classroom order. Where I teach, classes average around 40 students. With such large classes, I was running into a shortage of some supplies. This year I've been forced to do more online or simulated labs. Your generosity will mean more hands-on activities. Thank you so much.”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Miller

This project will supply hands-on-equipment for every student in every lab activity. That's what I'm trying to get to. My classes are around 40 students and I've run into situations where I just don't have enough equipment to go around. More meter sticks and graduated cylinders will certainly help me reduce the size of each lab group, and give each student more opportunity to use necessary equipment during hands-on activity. For example, today I was doing a lab where students would need to measure distances outdoors and calculate speed. The activity was designed for groups of three students, but I didn't have enough meter sticks, so I had to increase my group size.
