This is a presentation which Cherie created that introduces us to bee-bots and tells us a little of what Cherie’s been achieving with her students this year.
Nicole Sprainger has also posted the presentation from the Term 1 Seminar at DAC on the Bee-Bots Downunder blog.
The good news is that Nicole is arranging an order of Bee-Bots for schools. I’ve asked Nicole to order four for us, which will allow us to double the number of bee-bots we currently have. Once we have our own, we can return our loan pair to CEO and give another school the chance to discover these fantastic learning tools.

Thankyou for all the work you have done and shared. It has been very helpful.
Do you know where BeeBots can be purchased in Australia?

We purchased our bee-bots through Modern Teaching Aids, http://www.teaching.com.au/
There’s also supposed to be a newer product from the same manufacturer called a pro-bot, which is suitable for older grades (we haven’t looked closely at it yet).
There’s also a blog on what some schools in our diocese were doing with bee-bots last year.
