My Project

First graders are curious creatures that have a love for learning. Computational Thinking is a big focus to help them become critical thinkers and be prepared for their future.

Bee-Bots will help introduce my students to computational thinking and coding!

The opportunities to use our Bee-Bots across curriculum will be almost endless. Everything from retelling a story to identifying shapes or creating our own algorithms, analyzing patterns, checking and debugging our errors, as well as working in cooperative groups. They will have so much fun they will forget they are learning!
