A teacher in Waukegan is turning to Internet crowd funding to get things for her classroom that taxpayers would never ever even think to pay for. So far they have enough laptops and tablets for each student to have a device, along with a 3-D printer, robotics kits and subscriptions to a kid-level news magazine and even a webcam so they can Skype with experts in the fields they are discussing in class.
Julie Ahern, a second grade teacher at Andrew Cooke Magnet Elementary School in Waukegan joined John Howell to talk about what the crowd funding effort has meant for her class.
