My Project

Integrating Sphero coding robots into our Iditarod Unit promises to revolutionize our students' learning experiences, offering a dynamic and hands-on approach to education. By incorporating these programmable robots, students will not only gain a deeper understanding of coding and technology but also enhance their problem-solving and critical-thinking skills. The synergy of constructing dog sleds and utilizing Sphero robots for racing activities will create an immersive learning environment, bridging the gap between theory and application. As students design and build their sleds, they will simultaneously learn to program the Sphero robots to navigate the racecourse effectively, fostering teamwork and collaboration. This innovative approach to education aligns seamlessly with the spirit of the Iditarod, emphasizing perseverance, adaptability, and the symbiotic relationship between humans and technology. The integration of Sphero coding robots into our unit promises not only an engaging and enjoyable learning experience but also equips students with invaluable skills for the future.
