My Project

Hello! I teach students with severe cognitive, behavioral, and physical disabilities. I need your help to teach coding concepts to our amazing students!

I am requesting many coding robots such as Bee Bot, Dash, and Colby the Mouse Robot to create a hands-on, interactive environment for my students with profound disabilities.

These products are screen-free and will help my students to develop basic coding skills such as directional awareness, problem solving skills, and logical thinking skills to prepare them for more challenging tasks on the computer (on scratch, tynker, and code.org).
