My Project

I am working on creating a robotics club in which I will have students assemble robots and learn more about fixing electronic devices. I plan to take my students to competitions and will begin with books and a mechanical arm that will help them understand how robots work.

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide as this is a program that really needs a lift.

I am hoping for this team to really evolve at my school because we have many students that love building things and assembling cameras, sewing machines, and many other gadgets I've gotten over the years.

This will be right in their wheelhouse.
