STEM–From Coding to Computational Thinking
These supplies will supplement equipment purchased through the previous Mobile Marker grant. The Bee-Bot Robots, WeDo Lego and Sphero SPRK+ will help to unleash innovation on an on- going basis. Students will put STEM skills into real-world use while building teamwork and fostering creativity.
Video Game Creation with Bloxels
Bloxels kits allow students to use actual blocks and creation board to design backgrounds, characters and objects to create their own video game. Students use the classroom Ipads with the Bloxels app to capture their backgrounds and characters and objects to create their own game. Then program their game using computer coding within the app. […]
STEM Books to Inspire
These new titles will help to increase circulation and help students with their projects like the STEM FAIR and pique curiosity. These new books will be kept in the new STEM classrooms and all children will have the opportunity to be exposed to a variety of new topics.
Flight Simulation with Joystick
To support the Aerospace Engineering curriculum, this flight simulator joystick will enhance the piloting, with controls and movement that simulate the experience of being in a cockpit. The joystick allows the pilot to control movement across five axes and provides control of everything from throttle, prop, and mix, to aileron and elevator movement.
Wi-Fi Microscopes
These digital Wi-Fi microscopes, which are compatible with Ipads, allow students to collaboratively view the images from the microscopes, upload and save high-quality images and videos to their iPads for use in lab reports data analysis, engineering design projects and other class assignments.
