Student's today are in an ever increasing and changing technological world. We can help prepare our student's for this future by helping them understand this beyond just being a user of technology. I want to help my students to explore the "other side of the screen" and begin to learn coding. Code and Go Robot Mouse will enable my students to learn to program the mice to complete challenges and play games in a very fun and rewarding way. This project will foster skills such as problem solving, critical thinking, analytical thinking, spatial concepts, sequential thought process, visual tracking, following multi-step directions, and so much more!
