Primary 3 at Howden St. Andrew’s PS are the latest class to borrow the SpheroBOLT robots from the Digital Learning Team. Used as part of their Project Based Learning time, they explored the question, ‘What will the future look like?‘ and considered how technology might shape their future world.
From these discussions came lots of questions about robots and how they work. Learners developed early coding skills by giving the SpheroBOLT simple instructions and watching what happened next. They enjoyed trying out different commands, spotting mistakes and fixing them when things didn’t go to plan. By working together and having fun experimenting, pupils learned that coding is all about problem‑solving, teamwork and trying again.
