Super Shoppers
Get coding by simulating shopping using programmable robots and improve mathematical skills by calculating total costs and matching budgets!
Overview
After teaming up, the children receive a credit card with a limit. The young shoppers are required to use their card to go and collect different items using a programmable robot controlled with an iPad. The total price of the collected items should match the card limit in order to validate each round of shopping. The prices could be displayed in different formats in order to make the children use different sorts of mathematical operations to calculate the total price (e.g. five packs for $10, $3.50, one bag for $2 and two bags for $3, special offer: 10% discount, etc.).
Highlights
1- Improves practical mathematical skills.
2- Develops problem solving skills when planning robot routes.
3- Develops logical thinking skills when coding and calculating prices.
4- Generates excitement and a sense of achievement when picking and collecting items, and validating the total price with a budget.
5- Visualises coding by watching real robots execute coded instructions.
6- Encourages teamwork and cooperation.
