Robotics and Stem Rock!

Help me give my students headphones and storage containers for their robotics projects.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Shawn's classroom raised $657

This project is fully funded

My Project

The students in my 6th grade Automation and Robotics class are building robots. All of the robots start with a basic build that can be added to, based on the students' interests. The students work with their partners to complete the activities at their own pace.

Headphones will enable each team to fully engage in the Project Lead The Way Automation & Robotics curriculum.

Student engagement promotes autonomy and a sense of accomplishment.

The students are encouraged to complete optional challenges to add features and parts to their robot. Students will be able to store their robots and parts in the storage containers to keep them from being damaged.
