Programming with Botley


Boone kindergarten and first grade students are learning the basics of computer programming with Botley robots. They worked together in small groups to determine the path for Botley to travel, then laid out programming cards to represent blocks for lines of code.


Next, they entered the code into Botley's remote control and watched him go! Sometimes Botley didn't travel the way they expected and problem-solving conversations followed to get him back on the right path.  This was a fun way to practice cooperation and problem solving skills!
