In our Prep-ONE (SK) class, students start using the Dash and Dot robots. The students learn how to control the robots, Dash and Dot, using various apps on the tablet and puzzlet. These robots help teach our students the basics of coding. By introducing coding through robotics, we work to inspire our students to explore the exciting world of engineering and technology. The interactive whiteboard in our classroom has turned our typical classroom into a fun learning environment. The implementation of these technologies definitely enhances the way our students are learning various concepts. Prep-ONE students also enjoy exploring various educational games and activities on the Chromebooks. Some of the coding games include lightbot and botlogic educational puzzle games that challenge students to tackle complex logic problems while teaching valuable coding concepts. Using simple commands (and eventually code), students program their bots to navigate through progressively challenging mazes.
