Coding for Kids

Help me give my students The Sphero Indi Robot Student Kit. It is an excellent addition to a technology classroom for elementary students because it introduces foundational coding concepts in an engaging and age-appropriate way.

My Project

The Sphero Indi Robot will make a meaningful difference in your students' learning by transforming abstract STEM and coding concepts into concrete, hands-on experiences that are accessible and engaging. It encourages students to think critically and creatively as they design paths, solve problems, and experiment with sequencing and logic. Because it doesn’t require screens, Indi supports tactile and kinesthetic learning, which is especially effective for young learners. It also fosters collaboration and communication skills as students work together to troubleshoot and share ideas. Ultimately, Indi promotes curiosity and a growth mindset, helping students become confident learners and future-ready thinkers.

My goal for this project is to provide more hands-on experiences for my young learners.

They have worked with robots before and have shown great interest. My hopes are with this project to continue to build a robot library within the classroom and provide more opportunities for concrete coding lessons.

My students are truly remarkable. They have shown so much engagement and enthusiasm for technology. They are always hungry for more when it comes to learning. They are a diverse group of students but mostly all share a common interest in technology.
