My Students

My students have amazing minds and they love to think and create. I want to continue to grow with my students and the changing times we live in. It seems that every year there is something new I want to bring to the classroom but the funds are not there to do it.

My students love to be in the STEM classroom and learn in a project based learning environment.

I want to continue to build curriculum to to make my students think outside the box.

My Project

I love it when students are learning skills when they don't even know it. These little robots will get the students engaged while teaching them coding skills.

I have had Spheros in the past and they were a huge hit.

Sadly they have died, I want to bring back Spheros into my robotics curriculum and really get the students engaged in the learning. This project will provide 8 Spheros for my classroom. I want my students to code and enjoy themselves at the same time.

These little robots are fast, fun, and can do some amazing things. I know once my students get their hands on them they won't let go!
