My Project

Bee-Bots are kid friendly robots that use directional keys to enter up to 40 commands which send the Bee-Bot forward, back, left, and right. They are great tools for teaching students counting, sequencing, estimation, problem-solving and for learning directions in general. In addition to using them for various STEM activities in library, I use them for Hour of Code in December and for literary scavenger hunts, with the questions asked were from materials we have read or studied in class. At present we have thirteen Bee-Bots, having these additional ones would give us enough for every student in a class to have one to use without needing to share.
