Root Robots for Coding Adventures

Help me give my students Root robots in order to give them a variety of experiences with coding.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Scott's classroom raised $657

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am planning to offer an after school robotics club so that students can spend more time learning about coding and computer science from a young age. The Root Robots will make the coding experience more concrete than simply coding on a screen.

I hope to make my robotics club accessible to all students who are interested by supplying them with a variety of learning stations.

Students with special needs, hearing impairments, and attention issues respond well to highly engaging activities such as robotics. The Root Robots are the perfect fit!
