My Project

My students are very curious and they love to explore the world through coding. My students love to work together and need more hands-on, screen free materials for learning how to become better at coding.

We need Botley to help us have fun with coding!

With one bundle we will have enough Botley robots to get started in the wonderful world of coding. 4 Botley robots will allow us to work in groups of 2-3 children. By working together in coding gives students the opportunities to develop necessary life skills such as planning, cooperation, trial and error, and everyday communication skills.
