scribble bot takeover!

Scribble Bots have invaded Andrew H. Wilson Charter School and the scholars are at large! The Protégé Project assisted over 120 student in creating their very own scribble bot. A scribble bot is a little robot that colors on its own. Most scribble bots operate off of a vibrating motor that helps the robot skip across a piece of paper. If the robot’s “legs” are art supplies, the robot will paint/draw/whatever on its own. Sign up below to have The Protégé Project invade your school!

THE pro·té·gé DIFFERENCE

Our program is both culturally and environmentally relevant! The Protégé project specializes in designing and teaching project-based activities and providing hands-on learning to Expose, Inspire and Engage students in grades K – 12. Our instructors and mentors include STEM college students and corporate volunteers. With hands-on assistance and care, students are afforded the opportunity to see themselves in their instructors, with the possibility of following in their mentors’ STEM career footsteps.
