Exploring the World Without Leaving the Classroom

The Description

With these funds I will purchase a classroom set of Google Expeditions! Google Expeditions is a virtual reality teaching tool. According to the Google expeditions website, students will be able to swim with sharks, walk through a museum, and more without leaving the classroom. My goal is to give students an experience that they might not be able to have with this kit. At Sims Middle School, we are constantly trying to raise the level of engagement for all students. We want to show them what is out there for them when they graduate. Giving them opportunities to visit the International Space Station or the RMS Titanic will inspire them to check out the careers associated with those places. Your generous donation will allow all students at SMS to have opportunities to break down the walls and explore the world. 

Here is the breakdown of our goal of $10,309.00 (rounded up to the nearest dollar) for the Best Buy Google Expedition Kit

Best Buy Google Expedition Kit - 30 students (x1) $9,999.00
WePay payment and processing fee $309.25.30
Total goal amount $10,309.00 (rounded up to the nearest dollar)

Back Up Plan

If we do not reach our goal I will not be able to purchase the materials needed for these \"Out of this world experience".

I teach 8th graders at Sims Middle School in Pace, FL. This is a rural community in the panhandle of Florida. I would love to allow my students to experience the world outside their own backyard!
