Elmonica Elementary School hasn't added a story.
Elmonica Elementary is one of the largest elementary schools in the Beaverton School District. We have an incredibly diverse student population - over 30 languages are spoken at our school. We are a Title 1 School that was recently awarded International Baccalaureate PYP status. Our teachers strive to create authentic, project-based learning opportunities for all of our students.
Your support will bring Sphero robots into the hands of Elmonica students.
We are requesting a 12 pack of Spheros for $1399.00.
That would include 12 Spheros with charging cables and everything we need to get started.
Every Sphero robot will be used in Engineering Design projects at all levels. The first project will be The Great Sphero Chariot Race:
Each team must design a chariot that will be carried by a Sphero robot. This chariot must carry a token around a predetermined track. The Sphero must be preprogrammed to successfully run the track while carrying the token in its student created chariot. The team that can successfully run the track in the shortest amount of time wins.
Students who demonstrate understanding can:
Ask questions, make observations, and gather information about a situation people want to change to define a simple problem that can be solved through the development of a new or improved object or tool. |
Develop a simple sketch, drawing, or physical model to illustrate how the shape of an object helps it function as needed to solve a given problem. |
Analyze data from tests of two objects designed to solve the same problem to compare the strengths and weaknesses of how each performs. |
The Spheros can be used in many grade levels in the future across the curriculum to support instruction with innovative ideas and engaging strategies.
Please help us bring the excitement of robot competition and design thinking to our students!
