SPHERO CLUB We are pausing Coding Club for the next 5 weeks and doing Sphero Club. Coding Club will resume in June. Spheros are spherical robots that are programmed through an app on an iPad. You can look up more information about them at http://www.sphero.com/. Sphero Club will happen in the same block of time as Coding Club (Thursdays from 10:00-11:00) and is limited to the first 15 students who respond to this email. We will be using the same curriculum from last year, if that makes a difference for returning students.QUESTION OF THE WEEK - Is your student planning on participating in Sphero Club?
