These Sphero-mini robots will allow students to explore with drawing code, block code, and text. The robots will enhance our emerging computer science integration by collecting and sharing data (length, speed, etc.) while the students discover what solutions to math and science problems look like as they leave the pages of books and appear alongside them in their classroom. The robots will give the students hands on exploration in all areas of STEAM learning, opening their eyes and minds to worlds they never imagined. They will engage in learning, while enhancing their critical thinking skills. These mini robots will motivate them to explore and learn.
