My Students

Creativity is intelligence having fun. ~Albert Einstein It is important for students to Play with Passion and Purpose (Play.Passion.Purpose)

I am a media specialist at a Title One School in South Carolina, where 83% of students are on free or reduce lunch.

Our school population is made up of 430 students (286 African-American, 9 Hispanic, 18 students two or more races, and 117 students white).

My Project

In our school media center, we will incorporate MakerSpace on Fridays. To add to our MakerSpace environment, adding the Dash and Dot Robot will introduce students to coding. Students will be able to use an iPad to give commands to the robot using simple coding. This will help build their logic and problem solving skills.

Help our media center add to our MakerSpace program so that students will be able to create with a purpose.

Let's make Play.Passion.Purpose begin at our school! As Albert Einstein once said, "Creativity is intelligence having fun."
