My Project

"Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better. Maya Angelou

The Robotic world of coding is unfamiliar to my students because they have never been exposed to these types of experiences, therefore as their teacher I want to open their world to new skills.

They are so curious to learn new things is quite infectious because it energizes me to find new ways to foster that curious nature. They love to do hands-on activities during my science lessons, so I know they would be so excited to learn how to code these robots. Having the capabilities to program a robot through coding would be an awesome skill to have for my future engineers.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
