My Students

I teach STEM - Technology in a Pre K-8 Title 1 school in East Flatbush Brooklyn, New York. Many of my students come from low socioeconomic households, and are currently placed in temporary housing. All students receive free breakfast and lunch.

My Project

Help me introduce my students to the magic of coding using Learning Resources Coding Critters. In order to develop globally conscious members of society, my students need early exposure to technological advancements and practices such as coding.

Coding is cool, after almost 2 years of remote and hybrid learning, Learning Resources Coding Critters will provide students with a SCREEN-FREE coding experience.

Students will have the opportunity to work in groups to enhance their skills at working together, and other times they can work alone. By working in a group, they can share their thoughts and knowledge and by working alone, they can build their personal problem solving skills.
