My students need a cute and amazing little robot set to further their interest in technology and coding. The Dot and Dash robot set was created to foster kids curiosity about coding.
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 Students
My students are energetic, creative, and diverse third graders. My students vary from students with special education needs to highly gifted. They come from various economic and family backgrounds. We are a Math and Technology Magnet school, and our students love to learn through technology. They are creative and are working on learning how to work collaboratively in the classroom. One of their favorite times is science and STEM. Even my most energetic students are engaged during this time of the week.
My Project
Dot and Dash are two little robots that can work on their own or together. They help kids foster their curiosity for learning how to code. I would like to use the robots during our STEM time in class.
Dot and Dash will hep my students prepare for the future.
My students will work in small groups and explore how to control and apply commands to the robots using coding. The students will continue to foster their 21st century skills. The robots are engaging, interactive, and adorable! My students would love to further their learning through technology with these fun little robots!
More than half of students from low‑income households
