Sphero SPRK+ and Sphero BOLT are both spherical robots that can be programmed to move in different directions, following real-world, drawn out pathways or digitally encoded directions. They’re also a lot of fun to play with at any age! Sphero: SPRK+ and BOLTĮager for more coding fun? With Sphero SPRK+, Sphero BOLT, and the Sphero Code Mat and Activity Card Set, you and your classroom can program even more robots to play games and embark on adventures! These robots and related activity kits are great hands-on learning objects to make coding and programming more tangible for classroom learners. The Ozobots are recommended for students in grade 1 and up, due to the small size and delicate nature of the robots. ![]() Again, students can simply use paper and markers to draw out the code by hand.įor education professionals who may want to familiarize themselves with Evo and Bit before introducing the robots into the classroom, helpful tutorials and tips and tricks can be found on the OzoBot website. Using the Evo app, students can earn points and level-up as they learn to code and create. There is also the option to have students simply draw out the code on paper.Įvo works very similarly to Bit, but is used in conjunction with the Evo app as opposed to the OzoBlockly website. The robots read colour sequences to follow commands, so students can create lines of coded instructions - or they can create entire drawings!īit uses OzoBlockly, an online tool, to allow students to direct it, and there are helpful videos and online instructions to facilitate the use of the website. Both Evo and Bit can be used with simply paper and markers, or they can be used in conjunction with their designated app or website. ![]() OzoBots, featuring Bit and Evo, are two brand-new activity kits that allow children to learn to code! If you are looking for hands-on coding fun, then these two kits will fit right into your classroom. This month, the OISE Library is featuring a collection of coding resources in our Display & Play area, including four robots! Coding in the classroom has never been so much fun (or so easy)!
