Not A Box!
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Calderon's classroom raised $294
This project is fully funded
My Project
My students love to create using their imaginations with technology. The story Not A Box gives them the opportunity to "Think Outside The Box" and be innovative! The boxes and craft items are the materials they will need to bring their ideas to life.
These materials will be used to unleash my students creativity to create robots out of boxes and craft items. Students will use these box bots with the Microbit Hummingbird kits to bring their robotics idea to life. This project will tie creativity and crafting into computer science and physical computing.
This classroom project was brought to life by Con Edison
and 3 other donors.
