Our Sphero robots have been an absolute blast for our students, and they have opened the door to so many engaging, hands-on learning experiences. Having a way to keep our Spheros organized, protected, and powered up all at once has been essential. It allows teachers to have a ready-to-use set available for students without spending valuable instructional time searching for equipment or making sure individual robots are charged. The storage containers also make it much easier for us to share the Spheros among grade levels, giving even more students the opportunity to explore coding, problem-solving, collaboration, and STEM.\r\n\r\nI am truly grateful for your support of teachers like me who are eager to provide meaningful experiences for our students and share resources with our colleagues, but often lack the funding to make those opportunities happen on our own. Your generosity is helping us turn ideas into real learning experiences that our students will remember.

This built confidence in my students. They thoroughly enjoyed the guitars and were thrilled to be part of the club. I am excited to continue this club this year! This club instilled the importance of practice and consistency. Students worked through difficult learning curves and learned six chords on the guitar. Students thoroughly enjoyed this club and are excited to return and build on their prior learning.

With access to engaging logic games and hands-on activities, students are more willing to try difficult tasks, persist through mistakes, and think deeply about their learning. I've seen tremendous growth in their ability to apply critical thinking and logical reasoning—not only in math class, but across all subject areas. Most importantly, learning has become joyful as students proudly tackle challenges and celebrate their successes.

Students quickly learned how to organize their materials, take responsibility for their learning tools, and transition efficiently between activities.
