As our children give instructions to the robots, they are working on a number of geometry objectives. Because the robots are so engaging, they often take on activities aimed at higher levels.
Geometry - Position and orientation (NZC)
Level 1 (Years 1 and 2)Give and follow instructions for movement that involve distances, directions, and half or quarter turns.
Describe their position relative to a person or object.
Level 2 (Years 3 and 4)
Create and use simple maps to show position and direction.
Describe different views and pathways from locations on a map.
Level 3 (Years 5 and 6)
Use a co-ordinate system or the language of direction and distance to specify locations and describe paths.
