Please see this great opportunity from Ms. McGinnis.
Mrs. Tingley's 4th graders practiced their analogue coding skills with Ozobots today. These function very similar to how many robots work throughout different factories across the world. The robots are directed to move along black lines, and as they come across a section of color codes, they complete a specific task. Some of these tasks may be to spin, zigzag, and change their top lights to flash different colors. #21stcenturyskills #oxbowproud
