Our Favorite #GRLPWR OzoThings

Girls just wanna have fun…and code! For this month’s OzoThings, we’ve rounded up some our all-time favorite #GRLPWR content shared by our OzoSquad. Being that March is Women’s History Month, and that one of our missions is to get more girls interested in STEAM, this theme was a no-brainer! Girl power!

A Real OzoBlockly Gem

Sweet, four-year-old, Opal used the Pre-reader level in OzoBlockly to code her name with Ozobot! Her mom, Marcie, showed her how to program their Bit to move in a square. Promptly after, Opal worked on her own to program a diamond. The mom and daughter duo then proceeded to work together to create a code that would allow their bot to spell out Opal’s name! It is never too soon to introduce coding! 

Thanks to @PowerUpTeaching for a great intro to @Ozobot yesterday. I showed my 4yo today how to program a square in ozoblockly. She promptly coded her own diamond and then we worked together code her name. All on prereader. #startemyoung #phyzkid pic.twitter.com/hpguqPnigF

Middle School Girls Can Code

Some of the girls in Courtney Hale’s seventh grade class designed their own Ozobot activities using Google draw! We love the engagement and the creativity of these girls’ ideas. It always makes us happy to see older students learning with Ozobots, too! 

More Ss created @Ozobot activities led by students at PCMS! Ss used @google draw to create & design these activities! @CSforALL @GirlsWhoCode @PQschoolsCTE @PQ_STEM @Latonya_23 @PQPrincipal #ozobot #googledraw #cs4all #GirlsWhoCode pic.twitter.com/7I8ztf31mQ

Barbie Girl in a Robot World

The lessons and activities that Ozobot Certified Educator, Rene Perry, comes up with are always so inspiring! Who would have thought to combine Barbie with Ozobots and Color Codes?! Also, we had no idea there was a Barbie robotics engineer doll! (Adds to Amazon shopping list)

How many robots can Barbie program at one time? As many as she has devices for! I love my Barbie collection, I love my robot collection, I love to code! #Barbie #Tynker #Ozobot pic.twitter.com/5NVaTTRb1l

Girls Love Evo

What’s not to love about sweet little Evo? Tiemo Duarte’s fifth grade students programmed two Evos to meet, depart, and sigh. Such a cute, romantic, short story of robot love! We just hope this story doesn’t end like Romeo and Juliet. We’d much rather have a happily ever after!

Coding With the Troop

Girl Scout troops, that is! CodeForce welcomed Girl Scout Troop #58 to their World Headquarters to earn their robotics badges. They completed Ozobot activities and look like they were super engaged the entire time! 

We welcomed Girl Scout Troop #58, from Leland, to CodeForce World HQ to earn their robotics badges. They worked hard, learned a bit, and rocked out their Ozobots! Nice job girls! #ozobot #beyondcoding #stemplus pic.twitter.com/uBAgywXK8q

Evo TLC

We love these photos of Ozobot Certified Educator, Nikki Jones’ students caring for Evo like a baby. These girls are like little mamas to their class set of Evos, and we think it is the absolute cutest!
