Watch the informational video to the right:
Download Sphero on your chromebook from the google play store.

Connect to a Sphero.
Practice manually driving, changing the color etc.Â
Follow along with the video below to create your first Block program. You will program your Sphero robot to move in a square with roll and delay blocks.
Now let's refactor your code so that it draws a square using a loop.
Refactor is a common term used by developers that means to improve the way your code is written while still making sure it performs that same action.
You will use a loop to repeat any repeated actions in your original code. A loop repeats a series of blocks as many times as you want.
Watch the video below for guided instructions.
Add an extra layer of fun to your program by including lights and sounds as your Sphero robot moves in a square. Use the video below if you are unsure how to do this.
