Coding in Motion

Sphero Robots

Explore programming, robotics, engineering, and cross-curricular learning through responsive robot activities.

What Is Sphero?

Coding that moves.

Sphero robots are programmable educational robots designed to help students explore coding, robotics, engineering, and creative problem-solving. Depending on the model, students can control movement, experiment with sensors, complete coding challenges, and connect robotics to classroom learning.

Students can learn block-based and text-based coding, explore movement and direction, practice computational thinking, solve engineering challenges, and connect coding to math, science, and design.

Sphero’s educator resources position the platform as a flexible tool for classroom and makerspace learning across PK–12.
