Sphero Meets Peoples Academy Middle School

R2 Read 2 arrived right before Peoples Academy Middle School went on their extended winter break! Students had just enough time to start tinkering with our Sphero robot and learning what it can do. Our 7th grade students have been using their coding skills and the Tickle app for programming. We've taught R2 Read 2 some awesome tricks along the way- jumping and spinning across the library! (Video coming soon!) We are excited to continue learning and mastering our coding skills this month! Stay tuned...
