My Project

My students are curious about the world and love to learn through hands-on, engaging activities and books. Robotics will introduce my students to computational thinking skills through challenging developmentally appropriate hands on programming of the Botley and Qobo robots. Through coding, they will learn how to program and problem-solve to debug their programs, self-regulation skills, patience, and sequencing skills. Creating and reading programs will improve their literacy and math skills. Games, books and robot accessories enhance their fun, and provide myself and team information about robotics and coding. Thank you.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
