Robotics and coding are fundamental for STEM lab. The Sphero BOLT pack of 15 robotic balls and programming apps provides students with many ways to learn coding while programming a robot. Sphero is a reputable name in technology and this classroom set has achieved acclaim for its durability and ability to teach valuable tech skills in a fun, engaging way. This kit will help students from a range of grade levels collaborate, problem solve, and gain meaningful hands-on STEM experiences that will help them envision themselves as programers and engineers of the future! This Sphero BOLT pack will help put both the "t" and "e" in STEM for my students. Students will follow a design process to program and develop their robots' functionality. They will test and retest their robots' performance to fine-tune the coding behind the robotic tasks. Sphero BOLT activities require collaboration and an understanding of the STEM design process. These students are ready for it, and I can't wait to see what they will do with coding and robotics!
