STEM and Robotics Learning Space!

Help me give my students a STEM and Robotics Table so they can have a place to create and build, awesome STEM projects!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Sharmela's classroom raised $572

My Project

We need new tables that would help the children create, experiment and collaborate with their new STEM experiences.

This STEM and Robotics table is versatile and will help the students work in groups.

There is enough space on the table for materials. For example, the children can build a LEGO train set that they will code. They will be able to build and collaborate. The table is very important for our STEM classroom.

The small group STEM and Robotics instruction in a specified, distraction-free area allows for the teacher to be face to face with all students at the STEM and Robotics table and deliver differentiated instruction immediately at the table. You may believe a table doesn't facilitate learning. The furniture itself does not, but the physical ability to receive support right away does. A teacher can confer with a student while others work on their work independently without maneuvering and distracting others. With this project being funded, my students would be ecstatic because they will be able to focus on their STEM and Robotics coding activities!
