"Did you ever see a BeeBot, a BeeBot, a Beebot?," (sung to the tune of "Did you ever see a Lassie.) One of our kindergarten classes had a 4 week unit with our computer teacher on programing. These great tools, called BeeBots, help students to learn how to give a command, and then the "computer-BeeBot" follows the command. The students practiced directional commands such as right, left, forward, and back to make their BeeBot dance. Take a look at the video I created (using a video camera and Movie Maker) of their final project.

This is very creative and engaging for our younger students. I know they had a blast in creating the commands for their Bee-Bots!!
I have never heard of BeeBot. This seems like a great tool to use to to help students learn how to give a command and view how the computer follows the command. The students seemed engaged and I am sure they enjoy the activities.
This is the first time I have come across a software that encourage students to follow directions.These activities will especially be useful to students that have short attention span.
