In Robots to the Rescue!, students are introduced to Ozobot robots and begin to explore how they work. Students learn how to program the Ozobots by color coding paths for the robot to follow. The color codes teach students basic coding concepts like cause/effect, critical thinking, and debugging. Students learn how to care for the robots and become Ozobot ambassadors for their school site. Kindergarteners will explain to the rest of the school how they can program and care for the robots. Imagine the look on a fifth grader’s face when a five year old teaches them how to code.
This unit will empower students to be problem-solvers and will give them confidence to take on new challenges. To learn more about Ozobots in education, visit: https://ozobot.com/stem-education.
