Robotics For Second Graders

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Patton's classroom raised $2,422

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are a group of innovative thinkers. They enjoy creating, designing, and learning different ways of seeing and doing things. Each day is filled with the thrills of victory and the agony of defeat. But do we give in? "Never," we just keep learning.

My students are a diverse group of students that desire a hands-on visual approach to learning.

They thrive when they can see, touch, and experience new learning experiences.

This enthusiasm for learning is contagious. I want to keep their joy for learning alive. To do that, I too, must continue to learn and grow.

My Project

Imagine having the opportunity to teach seven-year-olds robotics. This in-depth summer institute will provide me the skill set to introduce lifelong knowledge to my students at this crucial time in their lives. This institute will bring robots to life!

Imagine finding an interest that continues to grow with you for the rest of your life.

My goal is to expose these precious young minds with a fascination that they will never forget. The children will learn to do more than build robots. They will learn to collaborate, share ideas, listen respectfully, solve problems, and believe in themselves.
