We use the Dash Robots for elementary students. It's easy to differentiate and the block language used in most of the apps is very similar to code.org. Have fun!

Good morning, 

We are interested in establishing an elementary (grades 3-5) robotics club in the hopes of one day entering state/regional robotics competitions. We were given a little funding and not a lot of time to submit purchase requests. Please reach out with your best tech/storage/vendor recommendations. 

Carrie

P.S. I am so appreciative of the expertise of this group. Thanks to all of you who reached out with so many wonderful book title suggestions on the topic of grief last month. On behalf of my entire school community, thank you!! 
💕
