[CASL-L] Coding toy advice

[Barbara Johnson]

We LOVE ozobots and Code-a-pillar (yes the toy!)
https://www.amazon.com/Fisher-Price-DKT39-Think-Learn-Code-a-pillar/dp/B01ASVD2L4
The ozobot has unplugged, plugged, and pretty high level coding.



I just ordered a book AND ozobot from Follett. Ozobots are about $50 each
and the Code-a-pillar was $50 with an extension pack.



Have fun!

I work in a preK -4 school, and my students have enjoyed the Hour of Code
games and puzzles. I know little about programming, but am considering
purchasing a hands on activity kit that I could use with an entire class,
and looking for advice. I think Little Bits is too advanced for my
students, plus I'm afraid some pieces would disappear. In the Demco
catalog, the Code and Go Robot Mouse Activity set and the Ozobot both look
fun. Anyone have experience with these or have other ideas? Or can you
recommend where to look?



Many thanks,
