I will use this technology for hands-on activities that would normally would not be available for my school to build and create cross-curricular activities. I did a trial run last year with STEAM and the students were so engaged and took the learning to their level. Oh my! The excitement! What I discovered last year is that coding and robotics are definitely an integral part of their future. An example of what I plan on doing with the Sphero is to do races with a course established. Students can collaborate and use team building skills to decide the best route while using math to calibrate time, speed and distance. Creativity is a must with many of these items. Challenges as fair as how tall can you build a tower or can you make up a creation and design so classmates can replicate. Students can be required to design items with certain angles naming angles and measure degrees or height and be expected to use a ruler to convert from centimeters to inches and use estimation skills. The amazing thing is that all of our students are talented. By giving them the materials to work with, all students can be engaged and feel positive about their accomplishments. I would appreciate anything on the item list. Anything to enhance my classes of STEAM will be greatly appreciated
