This hands-on lesson engages students by having them give each other instructions to complete a task. They read about coding and code for a Sphero bot to navigate a course using math to calculate
Students work in groups of 2-3 and use Bee-Bot robots to practice using a map key and symbol cards to program the Bee-Bot to find locations on a map. Students program, test, and modify their algorithm
In this lesson, students will understand the basic functions and components of an Edison robot. They will collaborate with peers to demonstrate basic programming concepts by providing simple commands
