First Grade Technology

First Grade students have been teaching Bee-Bot (a Bee Robot) how to spell! The aim of this is to introduce the students to the Logo programming language created by Samuel Papert at MIT as a tool for teaching sequencing, estimation and problem-solving. Students first created sequences of instructions (left, right, forwards, backwards) on the computer, and then entered the program on the BeeBot.
