STEM Tools

Help me give my students Sphero robot accessories, GoCube STEM puzzle, and Sphero musical rings.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Van Dorp's classroom raised $836

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am requesting Sphero robot accessories to go with our Sphero programmable robots. These learning tools will help my students learn fundamental STEM concepts through play-based learning and STEM activities. Using our classroom iPads, my students can use the Sphero robots and accessories to play games, create programs, build courses and mazes, or complete challenges. These robots will allow my students to learn and explore technology in new ways!

Many of my students excel when they are given alternative opportunities to learn in math and science and I can't wait to see their creativity explode in this new learning opportunity.
