Abbott Middle School Teachers Create tiny drummers using Hummingbird Tech.

Abbott Middle School Teachers have spent their after work time learning about Humminbird robots and how to program the robotics. The Hummingbird Robotics Kit is an easy-to-use, creative robotics tool which allows students to design, build, and program a personally meaningful robot out of any materials, with any device, in multiple programming languages. Teachers will be able to use this technology to integrate programming and their core content. Students will have the opportunity to be creators of their own learning, not just consumers of other peoples' work.
