Stepping Up on STEM (and robotics)!

Help me give my students coding, STEM robotic resources, and a class set of "The Phantom Tollbooth!"

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Luke's classroom raised $752

This project is fully funded

My Students

Hawaiian, Samoan, Chinese, Japanese, Portuguese, German... Hawaii is a melting pot filled with diverse cultures! The same goes for our classroom. We are a melting pot of diverse cultures, personalities, learning styles, and interests!

My students are excited to get back to the classroom!

My Project

Last year was a tough one for students, teachers, and parents. It was very devastating to see our classmates from behind a screen, in addition, not hear their discussions and laughter. This year, we have the opportunity to learn face-to-face with all of our classmates!

I want to provide the students with the hands on experience of learning how to code and apply it to programming a robot!

These coding and STEM resources will allow students to learn something new that they can apply in a future career, challenge their thinking, and be creative!
