Mrs. Crystal Dalton To All Instructors

My name is Mrs. Dalton.   I have a degree in Family and Child Counseling from North Carolina State University.  I love helping students be curious and encouraging them to ask questions and think outside of the box.  I have had the opportunity to do that for over 20 years in private schools and local homeschool co-ops.  I taught students following the Reggio Emilia Approach and Project Based Learning for many years before beginning to homeschool my own children.  I currently teach robotics to students at 4 local homeschool co-ops. I have been coaching FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) robotics teams for over 14 years. FIRST is a world class program that is about way more than robots.  They inspire youth to follow their passions and grow in personal and technical skills.  My highschool FTC (FIRST Tech Challenge) team TBD (ThunderBolts in Disguise) loves to learn and has made it to the State Championship every year. My FIRST Lego League Team Thunderbolts made it to the World Championship two years when they were in Middle School. I will be coaching and mentoring Arianna, Ryan, Ashley, Ben, River and Krysta and helping them with lesson plans.  I look forward to helping more students learn about the exciting world of Robotics.
