Ozobots are small robots that work by reading code using markers as well as being programmed using devices. I plan on using these robots to teach the students from Kindergarten through 5th grade with scaffolded lessons in programming robots to meet the Computer Science Standards. Computer Science and programming help students to learn critical problem-solving skills. "There are several advantages of learning to code in elementary school. First, learning programming empowers kids. Coding puts children in control of the computer and through experimentation builds mastery in sequencing skills, counting, problem-solving, logical thinking, cause and effect, and critical thinking." e School News, March 9, 2018.
