(forward, backward, right, and left) Kindergarten/1st grade Students work in teams to spell vocabulary words. (Taking turns driving from one letter to another) Write a story about Dash and Dot and then have them act it out by recording voices for each character. Students create a community for Dot and Dash to live in and have their needs met. Students use Dash to learn measurements and speed. (Programming Dash to move in Blockly)

7. More Examples... 2nd Grade: (Weather) Students were studying weather and they had to create a scenario to get Dash to Dot overcoming obstacles and weather issues. (Students read articles, worked on vocabulary, and worked through a STEM activity.)

8. Upper Grades (3rd-5th) Students can: 1.Create a setting 2.Solve geometric challenges using Blockly 3.Perform plays/ Readers Theatre 4.Program the robots to accomplish a mission. 5.Reinforce directional instructions by programing the robot based on the written work. 6.Evaluate self and peers and their ability to work together as a team. 7.Work on problem solving skills as they have to go back and improve on their work.

9. Options are endless.. You try... Here’s your turn… Can you take a concept that needs updating and put on a twist? Test out your skills and try out Dash and Dot! See how engaging they can be…

10. Options are endless.. You try... Choose an app: Go-basically a remote control Path-Draw a path on the tablet. Dash will travel that path. Blockly-Use code to program Dash and Dot--great extension to Hour of Code! Xylo-Compose music. Xylophone accessory needed.
