Programming with Sphero RVR

Once you are familiar with Sphero’s newest robot, the RVR, you’ll be able to start programming it with Sphero EDU.  EDU is both a website and a mobile application where students and teachers can use block programming to take advantage of the RVR’s sensors and movements.  Great for any STEM program!

Teq-tivities are helpful strategies, lessons, and activities to jumpstart meaningful learning and engage students - no matter where they're learning from. Our Teq-tivities help educators connect technology skills to pedagogical practices, to ensure that students get the most out of every lesson.

Sphero RVR - Right Triangle Paths

After studying interior and exterior angles of polygons, students will program their RVR to trace around the path of a large pentagon. This will involve speed and heading settings in the Sphero EDU blocks.
