My Project

This project will provide accessories for our classroom DASH robots. These accessories include ball launchers, gripper building kits, sketch kits, and brick extensions.

The accessories will provide another level of coding for my students.

My students love the DASH robots because DASH shows their creativity as the program each DASH. The accessories will move that creativity to another level of coding. With Sketch Kit, my students can visualize the results of their code on a large-scale, dry-erase surface. The grippers are a set of functioning arms that expand your robots’ capabilities and will allow students to construct using cubes. I can visualize my male students excited to see the launcher kit. That is just like allowing them to play basketball in the classroom. They will love it!
