Greetings!
Welcome to the Back to School issue of Turtle Talk in a new mobile-friendly format!
The rectangular suitcase design provides compact cabinet or shelf storage while the handle and shoulder strap make it easy to grab and go. Durable fabric and generous padding protect the contents. A clear outer pocket makes for easy labeling and identification.
The Hive Case is perfect for Bee-Bots or Blue-Bots you have. Be sure to add one to the purchase of a new Hive!
Educators across Iowa are combining Storytime STEM-Packs with Bee-Bot to develop STEM skills in PK-2 students via children's literature.
Storytime STEM-Packs, developed bythe team at Allegheny Intermediate Unit, are each based on a popular children's book and contain all the materials needed for a variety of STEM activities to bring the story to life. Students use Bee-Bots and a special mat to sequence the story and explore the narrative.
Teachers report that the wide range of activities based on the story support the development of both literacy and STEM skills and are very popular with students.
Terrapin products are compatible with Chromebooks which maximizes their convenience and applicability. Schools with Chromebooks can run Terrapin Logo, control Blue-Bot, Tuff-Bot and InO-Bot, as well as display objects with Easi-Scope (USB) and Flexi-Scope.
Easi-Scope (USB) and Flexi-Scope identify as external cameras when plugged into a Chromebook USB port. Access the Chromebook's camera control to choose to display from the internal or external camera.
InO-Bot may be controlled via Terrapin Logo running in Chrome.
Terrapin apps run in all modern browsers, but Chrome is required to control robots via Bluetooth because of its unique ability to send Bluetooth signals.
