One of the projects that I have taken on for the year is getting a digital projector for my science program. This projector will take my class into the 21st century (flashing flashing lights....) Youtube has an endless supply of science clips, I can give lessons with powerpoint, show full-length movies, and add visuals to my lessons (which is huge because for my Life Science class we do not have a class set of textbooks). Science class without textbooks? Oh, the things I took for granted in school.
The point is that my dad has a connection with a college buddy who sells projectors. He offered to sell us a $3,000 used projector for $550. I really want to make this dream of mine a reality. If you are interested in donating, I have set up a paypal account for the projector at email address nathanRgreene@gmail.com. No amount is too small. In these economic times, though, please do not feel pressure if you don't have the means. But, let's be honest, every kid deserves Bill Nye!
