Rebecca, at Ponderosa Elementary School, has been teaching her 1st-grade classes all about Spheros. For the last activity, she borrowed the bowling pins and the pool noodles (for bumpers) from the PE teacher and did Sphero Bowling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are the lessons she learned:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Have 7 lanes instead of 5 to get more kids playing. <\/li>
  2. Buy bowling pins that were not weighted. Her bowling pins had sand in them so she taped a Lego to the bottom to make it tip over easier. <\/li>
  3. Use the Drive feature within the app for making the Spheros bowl. The Draw feature didn’t get enough speed to knock over the pins.<\/li>
  4. The students loved this activity. They gave Rebecca lots of hugs at the end.<\/li>
  5. This was super fun and worth the effort to set everything up.
