LEGO bricks met coding in Mrs. Hooper’s second-grade room! With LEGO kits from the ROE, students constructed vehicles, then programmed them to move through specific tasks—turning learning into an engaging, hands-on adventure.
Mrs. Vickers’s second graders experienced hands-on STEM learning by building and coding LEGO vehicles. Using borrowed kits from the ROE, students proudly watched their creations navigate obstacles and complete tasks around the classroom.
Creativity was in high gear in Mrs. Cope’s second-grade classroom as students tackled LEGO building challenges. Thanks to the ROE's LEGO kits, students programmed their vehicles to move and perform special missions!
Second graders in Miss Bortmess’s class became engineers for the day, constructing LEGO vehicles using kits borrowed from the ROE. They took their skills one step further by coding their vehicles to move and complete exciting tasks!
Congratulations to the THS March Students of the Month:

Luigi the reading buddy🐰: inspiring young minds one story at a time!📚
English 9 students at THS with their Romeo and Juliet projects. Students were able to pick a project to complete and then present to the class. Some students chose to build replicas of the Globe Theater. Others created memory albums that Romeo and Juliet might have kept. Still others created drawings of costumes that Romeo, Juliet, and other characters might have worn in the play.
First graders in Mrs. Grant’s room revved up their engineering skills with a LEGO snowmobile-building adventure! Students constructed their models and then explored coding as they programmed their snowmobiles to zoom forward using kits from the ROE.
Miss Claypool’s first graders had snow much fun building LEGO snowmobiles! Using special LEGO kits borrowed from the ROE, students constructed their own snowmobiles and then programmed them to move. It was an exciting way to learn about coding and engineering.
