How much time do you have with your classes or do you work with their =
classroom teachers?
When I tried to do Robolab in my stand alone classes I just didn't have =
the time and structure to be very effective with it.
Thank you,

Hi Jenny,
I teach prek-6th technology. We use BeeBots in TK-1, Microworlds Jr. in =
1-3, and Microworlds Robotics EX in 3-6. We also do a lego project with =
Microworlds and/or Robolab with our 6th graders.
The WeDo Lego sets look very interesting. I have seen them in person at =
NECC 2009, but we don't currently have them on our campus.
Please let me know if you'd like any additional information.
Thanks,
Jayme

Subject: Programming for girls K-3- WEDO? PicoCricket?
I would like to develop an engineering/programming strand in our lower
school. I use Scratch and Mindstorms and wonder about WeDo Lego Robots,
PicoCricket (works with Scratch) and BeBots . Younger students have used
Googol Choo Choo successfully in building train tracks and towns. Are
there other products/software I should be considering?=20
I teach K-4 computer at an all girls school.
Thanks for any advice.
