My Project

Ok, so it's not actually July 4th yet, but let's celebrate STEM with a new fleet of Sphero Indi robots! With these robots, students will work in teams to create their own programs in a screen-free format by placing colored tiles in a sequence for the indi robots to follow.

The robots that we need are versatile and accessible enough to be used by all of our students while also teaching coding and problem-solving in a fun and engaging way.

I've already had great success with the one indi robot that we have, so the time has come to bring this unique STEM experience to as many kids as possible, both in my technology lab and in classrooms as well.

With your help, our robotics program will continue to grow. Although this particular "indi-pendence day" won't be celebrated with fireworks, we're hoping that it still be a lot of fun for all of our deserving kids. Let's celebrate together!
