Ready to take your experience with Sphero indi to the next level? πŸš™

By using the Sphero Edu Jr app to reprogram the lights, sounds, and movements of indi, students can create unique mazes, play games, and write simple songsβ€”all while learning the basic logic of programming. #edusky

Here's a quick, safe, and budget-friendly way to manage your BOLT and BOLT+ activities: POOL NOODLES! They're soft (no scratches!), colorful (visually engaging!), and reusable. πŸ™Œ

Perfect for coding challenges, obstacle courses, or keeping your bots contained during lessons.

Bonus tips:
βœ” Keep the lid open during charging.
βœ” If you've moved the Power Pack, be aware your robots may have shifted. You’ll need to double-check that they’re in the correct position before charging again.

4️⃣ If BOLT+ does not light up or the LED turns red, remove BOLT+ until the LED turns off, then place it back onto the cradle.
5️⃣ When the charging cradle turns purple, your robots are fully charged!

1️⃣ Look for a solid blue LED on the charging cradles to make sure it is receiving power.
2️⃣ Place BOLT+ directly on the charging cradles (LCD facing up and parallel to the ground).
3️⃣ If charging correctly, the blue LED will flash, and BOLT+ will light up.

Your students have probably seen a belt conveyor at the grocery store checkout, but did they know conveyors are used throughout our entire food system?

Using Blueprint Engineering, students will build and program a belt conveyorβ€”then add automation! #edusky
