My Project

My engineers-in-training are amazing designers and there is no limit to their ingenuity and creativity. I am always amazed by the work they produce and their resilience to failure. They are always redesigning and recreating new ideas that make their work that much better. In our LEGO robotics class, students are now focusing on piecing together their research design project. Students came up with designing a green roof for their school in order to solve the problem of overusing electricity in their schools since our school has a D rating in terms of building energy efficiency. However, part of their research is how they will share their design with others and they need supplies to help them do so. These shirts and iron-on sheets will support their team spirit and allow them to bring what others can't to the table—and that is our school's flair.

I never want to limit a student's creativity or talent by not having certain materials because we know that basic supplies equate to a limitless world of creations!

We need a team set of hoodies and iron-on sheets to help us create these LEGO Robotic Team shirts. Simple things help create big designs!
