Reading theme, “A Universe of Stories.” Using our Ozobot Classroom Kit and Ozobot’s fantastic educational
<a href="http://bit.ly/2y5N8jn">Lesson Library</a> portal, I found a <a href="http://bit.ly/2GpS33i">
lesson plan </a>that guides kids on using the Ozobots as their own tiny spaceship - showing them how to drive their spaceships and prepare a mission to Mars. These small but mighty robots can be coded simply by using red, green, blue and black markers. You
drive and direct them by drawing lines and colors on paper. During the hour-long program, kids gained information about robotic sensors and computer programming while learning how to “drive” their spaceship. At the end of the program, not only had they acquired
new skills, but the lesson plan provided them with their own spaceship driver’s license.
<br>
<br>
I wanted to pass this free and fun resource along to you in case you needed any last-minute program ideas or wanted to consider programs like this in the future. Tech companies like
<a href="https://portal.ozobot.com/lessons">Ozobot</a>, <a href="http://bit.ly/2OfzwwK">
Sphero</a>, <a href="http://bit.ly/2XXVuce">3Doodler </a>and others provide excellent STEM-focused lesson portals that you can access and use for free. This is a fun, convenient and educational program that I’m sure your patrons would enjoy!
