Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

The KIBO Free Throw Extension Set brings hands-on STEM learning to life by allowing students to explore concepts like forces, motion, and potential energy in a playful and engaging way. With this set, children can program KIBO to throw a ping pong ball, turning coding into an exciting game!

Students will love designing challenges like basketball, or catch all while learning the fundamentals of physics and robotics.

This tool encourages problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration as they experiment with programming KIBO to hit targets, make baskets, and drive toward their goals.

Your donation will give our students the opportunity to learn STEM concepts through interactive play, making coding and robotics even more exciting and accessible!
