KUBO Robotics is preparing something exciting for the new school year!🤩
🆕 Introducing Equations: A New Maths Game!
Choose a difficulty level
Follow KUBO and write down the equation
Provide KUBO with an answer and see if it's correct
You can check your answer in two ways:
Give KUBO a numeric answer
Write a whole new equation! If the new equation equals the original, KUBO will do a happy dance! 🎉
Would you like to try it with your students? Let us know which way you prefer: answering with a number or with an equation?

⛔STOOOP! - ⚠️Slow down! - ↩️Turn around!
Teach how to navigate in traffic and combine it with coding with this Coding+ exercise. Here’s how:

TALK ABOUT TRAFFIC 🚦🚸
Do a class discussion about how you navigate in traffic. Use this to introduce the different traffic signs on the map

INTRODUCE THE TAGTILES 🤖
Introduce some of the new TagTiles for Coding+, including the speed tiles, the wait tiles, and the U-turn tile. As you introduce a new tile, ask the students where they could see KUBO use it on the map.
Can they match the KUBO-commands with how a car would move?

CODE THE ‘KUBO-CAR’ 🚗
KUBO is acting as the car on this map and must be programmed to obey the traffic signs. The students have to make a route where KUBO passes the following signs:
↩️ Making a U-turn at the Dead End Sign
⛔ Stopping at the Stop sign
⚠️ Slowing down at the speed limit signs
If the students need it, they can program the actions one at a time and then make it into one route.

Teacher inspiration
Coding: Quick students can make KUBO move in the roundabout 🔄 and use the loop TagTiles to do so.
Computing:Have the students divide the route into three subroutines with the new Function TagTiles, one per traffic sign. After that they must assemble them in the right order and make one final function.

Use conditions to plant a flower with KUBO 🌷🤖

Spice up biology class with coding. Use coditions to make KUBO plant a flower. This exercise uses the Coding++ set, so we recommend it for students 7+ years old. (or if they are experienced with the starter set) 🤓

Start in biology class
👉 Explain how you make a plant grow and how weather conditions can affect the process
👉 Have the students draw the roots for the plants on the map. How should they look?

Time to code - Use conditions (if/else) to water the plant
👉 The students must identify the different steps to grow a plant. Use this scenario to explain algorithms.
👉The students must build a condition to help KUBO water the plant:
->KUBO should start at step 4 (the green plant);
->Set a limit for the variable. For example, the variable must be above 5;
->In the condition, program KUBO to go back to step 3 (watering the plant) if the variable is not the correct value;
->If KUBO goes to step 3, it must add +1 to the variable. Build a variable with the add to variable TagTile®;
When the variable is the correct number, the condition should take KUBO to step 5 (the full grown plant).
👉When the students have made a condition that works, they can extend the code by building the route from step 1 until the condition starts.

💡Teacher inspiration💡

Coding: Have a class discussion about conditions. Are there any day to day scenarios that resembles conditions? 🤖
Computing: The students must plan a route through the steps for growing a plant. They should evaluate on the code so it becomes as short as possible (Try to use the Coding+ TagTiles)🧠
Biology & Art: The students should make their own map by researching a plant they like and draw the steps for making it grow. Afterward KUBO must be coded to follow the steps 🌺
Language art: The students create a story about KUBOs plant-adventures and share it in class 💬

Can it be educational to play with toys?

Yes! Especially if the toy is a smart little robot with an RFID reader.

At the Robot & Science Festival we had the pleasure of participating in a talk about Playful Learning. With our cute little robot KUBO and the unique TagTile® programming language we want to create a playful space where kids can pick up the tiles and build the code their heart desires. By introducing storytelling as a key component when working with KUBO, we allow the students to write their own story. A story where success doesn’t necessarily mean building the most complex code, but where the only criteria is to get KUBO from A to B - a destination set by the student itself. Moreover, a playful space throws away the rulebook, making it easier to embrace coding errors and learn from them. An error doesn’t equal failure, it’s an opportunity to learn and be even stronger at identifying possibilities and limitations in your code.

We had an incredible time last week at the Odense Robot & Science Festival! 🎉

Representing our hometown Odense, KUBO was present at the festival located in the beautiful Munke Mose. The festival invites kids of all ages to unfold their curiosity by exploring tech and coding robots, thus taking the kids from consumers of tech to creators - a mission KUBO is proud to be a part of 🤖

By conducting fun workshops, students as young as four had the opportunity to code their very first KUBO. This included building functions and loops that took KUBO around the school with our Starter Set, advancing the code with our add-on set Coding+, and going on a math-adventure in the KUBO Farm with KUBO Coding Math. Afterward, we invited everyone who was interested to our stand where both kids and adults could come and explore how coding can become as easy as solving a puzzle with our TagTile® coding language. Together with the hands-on solution, we also introduced our digital version KUBO Play that allows students to explore the digital KUBO universe filled with fun coding quests given by KUBO's friends. A universe you could both experience on the computer and with VR! 👀

Moreover, we had the pleasure to participate in a panel debate on Playful Learning with other great companies and NGOs that share our mission to make tech easy and fun to work with. Representing KUBO was our talented Educational Specialist Liv Ullum who discussed how KUBO plays into topics like play in tech, 21st century skills, Gender & STEM, and Novel Engineering 🤓

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and made the festival a memorable experience. Together, we're inspiring the next generation of innovators and coders! 🚀

Even more so, a big KUBO nod of approval to our hardcore KUBO Team who made it all happen Lina Zheng Pedersen, Yuliia Prykhodko and Liv Ullum 💪
