Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

With the help of these robots, students will have a more engaging lesson while learning about solar power. Students will be able to see first hand how solar power truly works. My students enjoy learning new skills. As their teacher, I look for every opportunity to introduce them to new learning experiences. STEM resources are great for fine motor, cooperative learning and team building. I love to see my students build and be creative together.

The requested robot sets will be used in class, after school, in future summer school, and in public displays, influencing hundreds of students throughout its life.

Because we are so small, we do not have a budget for robotics. With your help, all of our students will have the opportunity to feel successful.
