Make your train pause, stop, change direction, sound the horn, and more! Taking the familiarity of a train and combining it with the new action bricks, early learners will learn through play about sequencing, looping, conditional coding, and cause and effect by placing the new action bricks within the train’s track. Each action brick creates a specific action allowing for students to test and redesign ways to problem-solve and work together to get their train to its destination.

Get ready for code your students can wear! Code Cube™ is a wearable tech learning tool that offers teachers and students a true coding experience not based around a robot. Using the programmable LED screen with its built-in accelerometer and sound output features, students employ block-based programming to create artistic animations, colors, and patterns that can play sounds or change as they move it around.

Teach middle school students (11-14 years) the basics of programming, coding, and electronics. No prior knowledge or experience is necessary as the kits guide you through step-by-step, you are well-supported with teacher guides, and lessons can be paced according to your students’ abilities. You can integrate the kit throughout the curriculum, giving your students the opportunity to become confident in programming and electronics with guided sessions and open experimentation. You’ll also be teaching them vital 21st-century skills such as collaboration and problem-solving.
