Bee Bots

Year 1 have been very lucky as the PTA agreed to buy us 12 programmable Bee Bots. These are little bugs that need programming in order to move or ‘dance!’ The children have been set challenges to get the bots to different places on the carpet, so they have to write algorithms (instructions); debug the instructions if they don’t work and manage the little robots. The children love the Bee Bots and they don’t realise how much they are learning whilst having lots of fun!
