My Students

My students are eager learners. They love technology and science. We are a low income, rural school. We are always looking for new ways to engage our students.

My kids are always excited to learn and explore new and various types of technology.

I have taught for 18 years and would love to give my students new opportunities but have limited resources. With your support, I can help my students become more successful and excited about learning in the classroom.

My Project

My students get so excited about STEM. We would love to add two new Sphero App-Enabled Robots to our STEM activities. We go to our STEM room once a week and I would like to add a Sphero station to our rotations. My students would use block coding to program their Sphero to go through mazes or obstacle courses. These activities will engage and challenge my students critical thinking skills. We would also need an iPad to program the robots. The iPad would also be used with other STEM activities such as programming Puzzlet boards, the Ozobot, Osmo, and Dash robot.
