As a thank you to the many teachers who have pushed through the toughest year yet, our EDU team just rolled out some new remote-friendly lessons for the winter holidays. But there’s more where that came from! We also want to spotlight some of the inspiring educators in our community, who have created holiday STEAM lessons of their own and shared them in Ozobot Classroom. Check out a list of our favorites–plus insights about grade levels, student objectives, and standards met for each–below!
Note: need bots for all your students to take full advantage of these lessons? Request a demo today to learn more about our 1:1 program–you might be surprised by the federal and state initiatives it qualifies for!
