Sphere BOLTs

______________________________

East Ayrshire’s digital learning library has given Bellsbank the opportunity to explore the Sphere BOLTS as part of our digital literacy and coding curriculum.

We have introduced Sphere BOLT, a fully programmable and highly advanced technology into our curriculum this year which promotes coding and STEM principles through play-based learning.  As part of their mission, Sphere BOLT aims to empower all learners to use skills such as: exploration, imagination and perseverance.  As an introduction to this new programming initiative we have encouraged children to explore the controls and manipulate their Sphere BOLT to navigate an obstacle course.  Our aim, in line with Sphere BOLT is to ‘encourage the world’s future Changemakers’ by fostering a love of robotics within our pupils as well as giving them the confidence to learn through trial and error methods.

Its clear to see the children have enjoyed their first experience using these robots and I’m sure they’ve shot to the top of their Christmas Lists already!
