My Project

Hello! I’m Ms. Leonard, science and CS teacher for the Gompers Bulldogs.

Last year our maker space was converted back into a classroom and our VEX IQ classroom kits vanished without a trace, leaving my robotics class of 22 students with only two robots to build and code with.

We’re still looking for our bots, but in the meantime, my students need something to work on that’s challenging but introductory.

These build kits will give them a project to get started learning with. They have already learned the basics of block coding, now it’s time to begin working with their hands.
