My Project

I am thrilled to announce the introduction of our school's very first STEM specials class, where I will be instructing students from kindergarten to 8th grade. Ensuring that I am well-equipped with a diverse range of supplies for my students is a top priority for me.

I aim to introduce the younger students to the world of coding through the exciting use of Bee-Bots!

With their user-friendly controls and movements, Bee-Bots serve as the perfect tool for my students to delve into the basics of coding.

My students, a curious and enthusiastic bunch, have a genuine passion for learning. By incorporating Bee-Bots into our curriculum, I am confident that they will remain actively engaged in their learning journey and spark an early interest in coding.
