Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Our STEM lab needs Bee Bot Rechargeable Robots! These programmable floor robots will introduce my students to control, directional language, and basic programming concepts in a fun and engaging way.

My students are curious and enthusiastic learners, and the Bee Bot robots will provide them with an exciting platform to explore sequencing and coding.

With a sturdy design and user-friendly buttons, these robots can be used for both individual and collaborative play, fostering teamwork and communication skills.

Your support will help me create an interactive learning environment where students can develop essential skills for the future. Thank you for helping us bring this innovative technology into our classroom!
