This year, I have 32 students who love to explore and create. We recently went on a trip to our district's brand new STEM center and watching my students build and program robots made me realize how much they need more opportunities like this to spark their curiosity.
By providing my students with these two Lego robotics they will have invaluable practice with critical thinking and problem solving skills.
During our trip to the STEM center, my students productively grappled with the adjustments that they needed to make to their robots and their programs in order to get the robot to do what they wanted. This was amazing to watch.
If you donate to this project, not only will you be helping to continue growing my student's love for creation and coding, but you will be helping them to think more deliberately about choices that they make, both in learning and in life. Won't you please help to spread a love of STEM to more young minds?
More than a third of students from low‑income households
