My Project

I love being able to see my students grow by learning about so many different types of new and emerging technology. I have the privilege to teach them about the "cool things that nobody else teaches them" when they are in my class. We learn about robots, 3D printing, electronics, simple machines, computer programming, engineering, prototyping, and the design process. The opportunities that the kids in my class have are like no other in the "typical" school environment. My classroom is entirely student-centered. The items in this campaign like LEGO's are going to be used in each of the different stations around the classroom.

Grades 6-8
