Raleigh Hills K8 School, Technology Team hasn't added a story.
My name is Denise Shier and I've been the Library and Instructional Technology Teacher at Raleigh Hills K8 for three years as well as spending the last 18 years working with Raleigh Hills students. Raleigh Hills K8 serves 590 students from Kindergarten through 8th grade and is a Title I school. With 43% of our students on free and reduced lunch, 27% who are English Language Learners, and 19 different languages spoken in our halls, our students make up a diverse and exciting group. For many of our students, exposure to technology experiences happens only here at Raleigh Hills with guidance from our teachers. Our goal is to continue to expand those technology experiences.
Kids love coding and creating. We are trying to enable our kids to be able to invent their own solutions to control the computer through coding, copper tape, creative tools, and fun.
Through the use of our creative computer lab and mobile maker space, we will be engaging our 590 students with real-world design challenges using the Makey Makey classroom packs. From coding projects using Makey Makeys in science (like our 4th grade habitat interactive mural) to literacy (our 7th grade book club project) we hope to continue what we have started and enhance these creative experiences.
We are asking for one Makey Makey classroom pack (each $699) which includes shipping.
Each Makey Makey STEM Pack Classroom Invention Literacy kit contains:
-
12 Makey Makey Classics
-
12 Alligator Clips
-
12 Connector Wires
-
72 extra Alligator Clips
-
144 New and Improved Connector Wires
-
12 Circuit Scribe Conductive Ink Mini Pens
-
Also, all 12 Makey Makeys in the STEM Pack has its own box that comes out of the case containing the Makey Makey, USB cable, 7 alligator clips, and how-to booklet.
These Makey Makey STEM packs will be used across grade levels in multiple classrooms as well as our creative computer lab and our mobile maker space.
Please consider supporting us here at Raleigh Hills K8. Thank you!
