Sphero Exploration

1.  View Video (5 Minutes)
Take a moment to view the three videos below to learn more about Sphero.
2. Control Your Robot by device (10 Minutes)

Watch the the next video to control your Sphero using a device. If you have you  do not have Sphero software installed this video will also help. Keep in mind that this video represents the Sphero Mini App... not the Sphero EDU App. 
3. Programming a Sphero Using Block Code

It is now time to use the Block Programming ability so often used at such places as Code.org.  Here you will find two tutorials. Try at least the first one... if time allows try the second, or come back to it later.
