Welcome! I am a middle school Robotics teacher in Bastrop, Texas. I teach some semester long LEGO Robotics classes and some full year Advanced Robotics classes using TETRIX PRIME kits and Arduinos. I also coach FIRST(For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics Team 4610, The BearTecs, I have coached multiple FIRST LEGO League Teams, and this year I will be coaching a FIRST Tech Challenge Team.
Five years ago I was being interviewed for a science teaching position and in the interview I was asked how I felt about teaching robotics... I had no idea how to respond, but was up for the challenge of teaching something new. I have always had a love and passion for ALL things STEM and choosing to tackle teaching robotics 5 years ago was the best decision of my teaching career.
I will be using this site to share curriculum and activities I have created and or adapted to use in my classroom. There is a lot of credit to give to others who have given me ideas and allowed me to adapt their activities to use in my classroom.
PLEASE Excuse the mess, I am going to load a lot of information I have been asked for just to get it out there and will work on cleaning it up and making it more user friendly and visually appealing later on.
