Help me give my students an opportunity to extend their learning of robotics with a gripper building kit for Dash.

My Project
The excitement and passion for robotics is so evident in my students that I'm always looking for ways to introduce new resources to engage their learning.
I recently discovered an attachment for Dash the robot.
The Gripper Building Kit is an addition to Dash that allows Dash to pick up and carry objects around. This is an excellent opportunity for me to teach students concepts about gears, ball and socket and how to program Dash to sense objects to pick for transportation.
This resource will help my students learn engineering concepts in a tangible and meaningful way.
Half of students from low‑income households
