Bee-Bot Mazes
by Danielle Houseman
Students collaborate to create mazes for the Bee-Bot robot. Students also work in teams to plan and create programs to move Bee-Bots through the maze. For this lesson, students work in groups of 2-3 with their own Bee-Bot, maze mat with 20cm squares, manipulatives, and dice. The lesson begins with an overview of programming, the Bee-Bot language and commands, and finally an introduction to the activity.
