I use this video camera to record the presentations so that I can go back and look at them and grade them based on their knowledge of what they presented and how they presented it. My students like recording themselves doing the presentations. \r\n\r\nIt makes them get more excited about doing their assignments. A lot of my older students have warmed up to this technology. They like to watch their presentations on the camera after they do them and see how they did.","fullyFundedDate":1758202777604,"projectUrl":"project/lights-camera-action-part-1/9665901/","projectTitle":"Lights, Camera, Action!

My students are more engaged in their work when I make it hands on and fun for them. I currently have one project on Donorschoose right now and that is for a new refrigerator. The refrigerator that we have right now no longer works and we are in desperate need of a new one. Not only do some of my students bring their lunch to school that has to be refrigerated but they also bring their water bottles to school filled with water to take to pe and there's nothing like drinking hot water after pe. This is why we need a refrigerator so that lunches and water can be cool.
