Dash & Dot -Wonder Workshop - Coding Robot
Special Edition Dash & Dot Coding Robot Bundle set
Product information
The Wonder Pack is a bundle containing both Dash and Dot robots as well as a whole host of accessories - the Xylophone, Launcher, Accessory Pack and Building Brick Connectors are all included.
Dash and Dot are the coolest, cutest robots around and they are on a mission to help KS1 and KS2 children learn to code. They each have an excellent range of sensors as well as the ability to interact and communicate with each other.
Programming Dash and Dot
Wonder Workshop have created a whole suite of applications for iOS and Android phones and tablets. The apps are also available for Kindle.
For younger children (5 to 7 years old) the Path, Xylo and Go apps are an excellent introduction to basic sequencing, spatial reasoning and navigation. For older children, Wonder and Blockly offer a visual coding experience that guides beginners through their first programs and lets students experiment with logic, loops and variables as their skills increase.
Compatible devices
Dash and Dot can be programmed from iOS, Android, Kindle and Chromebook devices but please note that not all the apps are available on all devices.
* Go is not available on iPad Pro, please use the Wonder app controller on these devices
