Sphero- the Orb of Wonder
|
The Sphero is such a great way to teach programming. This powerful little orb will be used in our Tech clubs this year.
Free coding lessons can be found at the Go Sphero website. Students can use free iPad apps to control the Sphero. |
Makey Makey
|
The Makey Makey is a relatively inexpensive way to explore circuits and create controls that are just plain cool. With any conductive material, create a keyboard, game controller, or just about anything else! Check out some of these cool projects people have put together with the Makey Makey.

Makey Makey Activities:
- Banana Bongos
