Sphero Club – Draw

P5-7 got stuck in to our second session of our Spero robotics club today. This time the challenge was to design a route for the Sphero that the device would follow. We learned that we had to make sure each line in our 2D shapes joined otherwise the Sphero had a ‘dead zone’ instruction gap. The children experimented with coding the device to display different colours for each line. Ry’s team were creative in having the device trace our their names. We had time for a couple of races in our teams before tinker time for exploring.

Our next challenge will be introducing coding blocks.

The activity helps develop meta-skills of self-management, social intelligence & Innovation
