Set your whole class coding at once with this classroom bundle of Blue-Bot floor robots. Blue-Bot is a programmable robot for primary classrooms that builds sequencing, directional language and computational thinking — with or without a screen — so students learn real coding skills through hands-on play.
What's included:
- 12 x Blue-Bot robots (audio-enabled, rechargeable model)
- 2 x Bee-Bot/Blue-Bot charging docks
- 2 x Bee-Bot/Blue-Bot storage hive bags
- 2 x Blue-Bot TacTile Readers, plus a standard tile pack and an extension pack for screen-free coding
- Five activity mats: Australia Map, Australian Currency, Shape, Colour & Size, Solar System, and a transparent pocket mat you can customise
What students practise:
- Coding and computational thinking — building, testing and debugging sequences
- Directional language and spatial reasoning through forward, back and turning commands
- Problem-solving and logical reasoning
- Cross-curricular links to maths, geography and science using the activity mats
Every student can take part: Blue-Bot can be programmed with its on-body buttons, with the TacTile Reader for screen-free coding, or remotely over Bluetooth — supporting a range of abilities and learning styles. All items in the bundle are covered by a 1-year warranty.
Blue-Bot Rechargeable Programmable Floor Robot
Blue Bot has several buttons on its back that help control and connect it via Bluetooth to your device. By programming their clever new robots remotely, students can use the command keys to send Blue Bot in any direction across the floor (forwards, backwards, left and right), whilst also being taught counting, sequencing and estimation in a fun, problem-solving setting.
Blue-Bot’s Features
Blue Bot has functionality like never seen before. It can manoeuvre 45 and 90 degree turns, allowing children across Australia to program Blue Bot to construct a variety of drawings and shapes, as well as travelling through complex pathways. Its sturdy shell is incredibly durable to the inevitable classroom mishaps, and the translucent structure permits students to actually see their programs ticking away inside the intricate components of Blue Bot’s technological brain.
Blue-Bot’s own app
The Blue Bot app is completely free, and available for download to all devices in Australia via the Apple Store for Apple products, the Google store for Android, and with Windows and Mac software in the Terrapin Downloads section.
Upon opening, you will find that the app has a detailed ‘explore mode’ which places children in front of varying degrees of fun challenges and puzzles, in which they can use their robot to complete and consequently learn all the delicate secrets of computer programming.
