indi is a small education robot that uses colour cards for routes and can also be programmed with Sphero Edu Jr. For a primary school, assessment centres on the teaching materials around the route. Decide how learners place cards, state an expectation and then discuss the observed movement. Account for available floor or table space and collecting all cards at the end of a lesson. A first activity without a screen may require different preparation from an app-based task. Confirm the intended combination of robot, cards and tablet. Standard Sphero Edu is not the same environment as Edu Jr, so that choice belongs explicitly in the school project and device plan.
