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 students need more real world Computer Science in the classroom to enhance their learning of these life long skills. Bee-Bots will be a great addition to introduce our students to robots. Coding will come to life and will allow students to get a deeper understanding of what it means to code when they are able to direct the robot to move.

Your generosity will help our students gain life long coding skills where they will hone in on their problem solving and critical thinking skills as they see the Bee-Bot Robots come to life.

Thank you for your generous contributions and for being part of our village! Without your support, engaging projects such as this one would never come to fruition.
