Kate,

I use the sphero Indi Cars as a resource in my technology class. They are great for younger students to do screenless coding. Do you recommend the Bolt lessons to go along with these tools, or are they dedicated to certain Sphero items?

For me, code.org helps bridge the gap between students who have never coded to using block coding skills in other platforms like scratch. Scratch does not have much in the way of tutorials, but this website covers all the basics for students.
