Introduce a playful, imaginative, and easy-to-use STEAM learning tool to your elementary classroom! Sphero Mini is compact, measuring about the size of a ping pong ball, and offers intuitive programming and a host of features that make it an exciting addition to your learning environment. Each Mini Activity Kit in the Education 16-Pack contains a clear Sphero Mini, bumper covers, traffic cones, bowling pins, construction sets, and activity cards, supporting both individual and group learning for up to 3 students per Mini.
Sphero Mini provides three programming canvases suitable for elementary learners*: Draw, Blocks, and Text in the Sphero Edu app, allowing young students to quickly learn to program, control the robot's movements, and customize its features.
The Sphero Edu app offers a vast array of activities that teach computer science concepts and enhances learning in core subjects like math, science, and ELA, making it easy for educators to incorporate STEAM into their curriculum.
Sphero Mini contains a gyroscope, motor encoders, and accelerometer, as well as a bright, colorful LED to add an extra layer of excitement to the learning process.
Mini is small enough for desktop learning but sturdy enough to roll around on the floor. Students can easily maneuver the robots around their desks or workspaces, encouraging hands-on learning and interaction in a space-efficient manner.
This pack comes with a range of exciting accessories, including bumper covers, mini traffic cones, bowling pins, and construction sets that offer endless possibilities for imaginative play and learning—from navigating mazes to robot races!
The Sphero Mini Education 16-Pack supports both individualized learning and collaborative group projects. The Mini robots and accessories in the pack are packaged individually, making it easy to use for individualized learning, or can be used for collaborative group projects with up to 3 learners per bot.
Beginner learners can drive and play STEAM-inspired games with the Sphero Play app and eventually advance to programming with Block Based Coding or Javascript in the Sphero Edu app. The Sphero Mini At-Home Learning Starter Kit is ideal for educators to send home for individualized learning and can be easily facilitated and guided by parents.

Computer Science Foundations is a standards-aligned, supplemental curriculum built on the K12 Computer Science Framework Principles. Scaffolded across three courses and 72 lessons, teachers and students build Draw, Block, and Text coding skills. They then integrate these concepts into curricular content: everything from polygons and poetry to logic-puzzlers and compliment-givers.
