Shoutout to our amazing Science teacher, Ms. Yvonne Perez, for leveling up instruction and learning with technology! 🔬✨
By integrating ClassVR headsets into her lessons, she is also leveling up instruction and student learning, allowing students to visualize and immerse themselves in complex biology concepts such as viruses, bacteria, cells, and the immune system response. 🧬🦠
This is what engaging, future-ready learning looks like. Great job, Ms. Perez! 👏💻
