Beebot Robotics K- 2 An introduction to the interactive Beebots platform, great for younger students on how a robot really works! Enquire Now An introduction to programming and logic for younger studentsUsing a simple intuitive interface, students program the Beebot to move forward, turn, stop, flash lights and make sounds all within themed challenges designed to teach children planning and spatial awareness. Each Beebot can store up to 40 steps, with each step having flashing lights and sounds to confirm it is stored.The students will work in pairs or threes as they are guided through a series of challenge mats and obstacles based around the HSIE and Science & Technology outcomes. This engaging workshop offers students a chance to learn real-time programming in a fun atmosphere. Plus, it’s great for students learn about coordinates and sequential reasoning.*This is an introduction only, if you have already been using Beebots at your school for a while it is unlikely that we will introduce many new concepts due to the platform’s simplicity & limits in functionality.
