My Students

The STEAM Team at 217 is comprised of over 1100 bright, energetic, captivating young learners who have come to call our big little Brooklyn school their home sweet home. The halls of buzz with over 30 different languages, driven by a community of passionate educators. Our school is a Title 1, title 3, barrier free, and serving an ever fluxing neighborhood with a tremendous special needs population. Students are in need of virtually everything from pencils to jackets and everything in between- won't you help?

My Project

My students are about to embark in a year filled with discovery and adventures in technology, STEAM and computer science... but the voyage ahead needs supplies and tools to help develop their inquisitive minds! My students would benefit greatly from headphones to allow them to work both independenly as well as the ever critical skill of pair coding. Currently my lab is without working headphones for student workstations, making a vibrant but at times distracting environment for exploration and concentration. A trio of tablets and a codable robotic friend would be tremendously beneficial to the development of their CS concepts, peer work, partnerships, group projects, and more! Help us build the beginnings of a STEAM lab!
