My Project

At our school we are working hard to build an exciting and inclusive computer science program! My students come from all over the world and are learning to code using blocks (Snap!), Python and Java! Donors Choose has already allowed me to buy a programmable embroidery machine! These are supplies to go along with it. We need thread, backing, T-shirts, scissors, etc.

Students will program designs using Turtlestitch.org, and then execute them on T-shirts and more using an embroidery machine.

My students are studying AP Computer Science Principles, and this project will allow their skills to become tangible!
