Give this project a boost!
A chain reaction of support starts with one share.
My students are brilliant and resilient 6th graders striving for college. They are gamers and athletes, care-givers and creators (and much, much more!) - eager to unleash their brilliance in new ways every day.
Providing students from diverse backgrounds with new and engaging opportunities to learn complex skills and concepts, problem-solve, collaborate and create will take them miles on the road to college-readiness in the 21st century.
This project will provide opportunities like this for many years and many students to come!
My Project
Sphero SPRK+ robots will not only bring tremendous joy to my students, they will also be a tool for developing critical skills for their future. Students will problem-solve and persevere through trial and error to make the robots roll through mazes, paint, and even swim!
