Robot Reboot

Help me give my students new robots to replace our ones that have seen better days!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Malinoski's classroom raised $2,633

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Our current set of robots has seen better days, and as we move into the new school year, our students are eager to engage with new technology that will inspire their learning and creativity. Our classroom is committed to fostering a love for STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) among our students.

Robotics is a key component of this initiative; however, our existing robots are outdated and no longer function effectively.

This has limited our ability to fully explore the potential of robotics in our curriculum.

With your generous support, we aim to purchase new robots that will:

Engage Students: New robots will capture the interest of our students, allowing them to participate in hands-on learning experiences.

Enhance Learning: Robotics encourages critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaborative skills that are vital for their future.

Inspire Creativity: Students will have the opportunity to design, build, and program their robots, fostering creativity and innovation

By contributing to this project, you will directly impact the educational journey of our students. Your support will not only provide them with the tools they need to succeed but also inspire a new generation of innovators and problem-solvers.
