Help me give my students a free throw extension so that they can learn to program the Kibo to throw a ball.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Zeitz's classroom raised $302
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
The KIBO Free Throw Extension Set brings hands-on STEM learning to life by allowing students to explore concepts like forces, motion, and potential energy in a playful and engaging way. With this set, children can program KIBO to throw a ping pong ball, turning coding into an exciting game!
Students will love designing challenges like basketball, or catch all while learning the fundamentals of physics and robotics.
This tool encourages problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration as they experiment with programming KIBO to hit targets, make baskets, and drive toward their goals.
Your donation will give our students the opportunity to learn STEM concepts through interactive play, making coding and robotics even more exciting and accessible!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
