Coding with CoDrone Quadcopters

Help me give my students these super cool Codrone Quadcopters. They are small educational drones that my students can code/program by themselves.

FULLY FUNDED! Dr. McLain's classroom raised $534

My Students

My classes are comprised of students in third, fourth, and fifth grade that have been identified as academically gifted and talented. My students are unique in many ways due to their intellectual abilities and varying social and emotional dispositions. My students are also from a large range of socio-economic backgrounds.

My students have demonstrated not only academic achievement but a mental ability to tackle some of the most complicated and complex problems.

They are gifted learners by nature. At my school we seek to meet their needs as well as others.

My Project

What a fun, rewarding experience to be able to code drones and program them how and when to fly! Students will also troubleshoot and problem-solve their programming until their drone's flight pattern is what they planned for it to be.

Talk about real-world experiences!

Working with these CoDrones may inspire our students to become computer programmers, scientists, astronauts, pilots, and so much more! Most students in our school would not have the opportunity to use such amazing technology equipment!

Our students deserve the most up-to-date technology to prepare them for college and careers in the very near future!
