My Project

Students will use these supplies to prepare for their Robotic competitions. This will give students a chance to really learn about possible careers in engineering. The iPad will be used for coding, while the other supplies will help students prepare a presentation to show what they have learned.

This will be an amazing opportunity for students to explore possibilities in STEM.

We are so excited to get moving with learning about technology and coding. We have 6 robotics teams at our school this year and are so excited for all of the learning opportunities.
