As a science teacher of gifted students, I try to provide ample hands-on labs for my students. My students plan their own design challenges, develop their own hypotheses and collect their own data. Some experiments can be easily completed using household items like straws, cups or old holiday lights. But in order to prepare my students to be college ready, they need to experience science as true scientists with real equipment.
My students need up to date technology in which to participate in authentic STEAM labs. The requested items would go a long way to achieving this goal. We greatly appreciate your consideration.
