The new Bee-Bot App from TTS Group has been developed based on thier much-loved, Bee-Bot floor robot. The app makes use of Bee-Bot’s keypad functionality and enables children to improve their skills in directional language and programming through sequences of forwards, backwards, left and right 90 degree turns. The app is for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch and is totally free.
The app has been developed with 12 levels encouraging progression. Each level is timed and the faster it is completed the more stars you get! The levels are set in a cute little garden scenario and will appeal from age 4 upwards. I’d recommend it for KS1
It’s a fun little game, and mimics the process of giving simple instructions to move the bee-bot around the floor and turns it into a fun puzzle game. Only changes I’d suggest would be a way to see/review the set of instructions before you set the bee-bot off on its journey.
It’s an excellent free app, and I highly recommend it! Download it from iTunes here.
