Sphero Bolt Resources
What is it?
A waterproof spherical robot that can be controlled by a device - it can be driven and/or coded.
We have a singular Sphero Bolt in our Tinker Time kits
We have a classroom kit of Sphero Bolts for use when students come to visit Mrs Lee in the Exploration Station. These are usually used with year 5-6 students.
What is in the kit? What do I need?
In the kit you'll find:
iPad & charger with Sphero EDU app installed
Sphero Bolt & Charger
Sphero Cover (use when working with Sphero outside)
Sphero compass (helps with direction)
Quick start Guide
Ramp
You'll need to provide:
Space for students to use the robot - while Sphero is very robust please prevent large drops from tables and other structures
Sphero can be used outside with the protective cover on
Sphero can also be programmed using Chromebooks. Students will need to install the Sphero EDU Chrome extension to do this
