I have a small SMART Board I inherited from a school downstairs in our building, a wonderful projector screen I found on E-Bay last year, a set of Power Point presentations on everything from the Big Bang Theory to Einstein's Theory of Relativity, and no projector to show all these wonderful technological things to my students!! I teach 10th, 11th, and 12th grade science at the only all-girls public school in my district, and because we are a small school with a tiny budget, I am the only Physics and Earth Science teacher in my school. Last year, a friend with a job in corporate America was able to secure an LCD projector for me to use in my room, and I did almost daily, but this year it was needed at his job and I was left without one. As a science teacher, I rely on technology to demonstrate the processes scientists use in their daily work, not to mention to show pictures of their amazing findings.
