Ozobot Classroom

Slot Car Race Track

Rev up your engines and get ready to code! Design a Blockly program to navigate an Ozobot slot car around a race track. Race across the finish line using line navigation, timing, and light effects blocks!

Ozobot Learns the ABC’s

Using surface color response, students are challenged to program Ozobot to recognize the three colored blocks in alphabetical order. Originally written by Dr. Richard Born, Assoc. Professor Emeritus, Northern Illinois University.

Adaptive Cruise Control

Students construct an Ozobot Blockly program that mimics Adaptive Cruise Control. Ozobot slows down when getting too close to another bot. Originally written by Richard Born, Associate Professor Emeritus, Northern Illinois University.

Infrared Secrets (Part 2 of 2)

Telling secrets at school can be like playing with fire—exciting until someone inevitably gets burned! Program your Ozobots to change the secret with each pass, showing how easily secrets can morph into misunderstandings and hurt feelings.

Infrared Secrets (Part 1 of 2)

The middle school bots are buzzing with secrets throughout the school day, their LED lights flashing wildly as they share and pass on messages. Learn to program multiple bots at once and create a secret-telling frenzy!

Meet Ari: The Ozobot Editor (5-12)

Get to know the Ozobot Editor, learn to write pseudocode, and explore programming Ari using block-based coding. Apply your new skills by creating and running your own custom program to make Ari perform a fun sequence!

Distance Formula with Ari

Students will utilize Ari to find the x and y coordinates of two small objects and use the distance formula to calculate the distance between them. They will then check their answers using Ari’s distance app and calculate percent error.

Solar System Model with Ari

Students will create a miniature model of the solar system with the help of Ari, with distances to scale if the sun were the size of a ping pong ball.

Meet Ari: Hardware, Software, and Apps (5-12)

Meet Ari, your new robot buddy! In this lesson, you’ll dive into using Ari and level up your coding skills as we explore its hardware, software, and apps, uncovering all the amazing things this bot can do!
