My Project

We are in a public school that is involved in transforming education for our students through the use of 21st-century skills. My students are active, critical thinkers who learn through perseverance and exploring new technologies. We continue to work on collaboration skills and learning to work well on a team on a daily basis. COVID-19 impacted our learning skills and this project will help teach us how to work with others as we learn skills that will take us into the future of programming.

My students are curious about how things work.

I want to provide them with the tools for finding pathways for a future career in STEM & Technology.

Through building and coding their Sphero robots, my middle schoolers will learn about trial and error, and how to troubleshoot issues - important skills to develop for critical thinking.
