Coding and computer science are such an integral part of the workforce today and will be even more so when our students are ready to go out in the real world. As digital natives, this generation is well equipped to start learning these concepts at a very early age. It is my goal to teach them robotics and coding all the way through their educational careers. Ozobot robots are an intuitive, fun, and challenging way to start teaching coding to our students. As they grow, so do the challenges placed on them by the robotics. This is the future, and I want our students to be ahead of the curve, so that they can lead the way!
