How are Ozobots used in the classroom?

Beginning Activities

  1. Draw a black line that curves, turns, etc. and have the Ozobot follow it.
  2. Add in speed changes!
  3. Once students are comfortable with the basics above, they can then draw intersecting lines and use directional coding blocks.
  4. Find more activities on the Ozobot website.
