My Project

The items in this request will help expand my STEM demonstration tools and replace items needed. The meter sticks will replace my current classroom set which has truly seen better days and the answer boards will allow me to have more interactions with a fun way to respond when asked questions.

The most exciting and I feel most used parts are the Gyroscope Wheel and Rotating Platform.

The gyroscope wheel and rotating platform will give the students to see me demonstrate Inertia, rotational forces interacting, and Newton's Laws. They will be able to interact with these items too and gain a deeper understanding.
