Computer Science Foundations (CSF) is a supplemental, standards-aligned curriculum designed to be taught in the classroom alongside our BOLT robot. Almost all the lessons are fully compatible with BOLT+, Sphero’s latest round robot.*

Across 3 courses and 72 lessons, teachers and students will explore STEAM principles through creative coding. By the end of these courses, students will demonstrate a mastery of block programming by manipulating sensors, loops, conditionals, variables, and functions, and rewrite simple block programs in JavaScript.

STANDARDS-ALIGNED CS LEARNING: Aligned to NGSS, CSTA, TEKS, and Key Stage standards.

PRINTED TEACHER GUIDEBOOK + PERPETUAL DIGITAL LICENSE: A resource-rich guide containing 72 detailed lessons for educators. Includes a perpetual license to all digital student facing materials and content.

REAL-WORLD APPLICATIONS: Lessons that connect coding concepts to real-world applications, fostering critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

ADAPTABLE CURRICULUM: Flexible lesson plans that can be tailored to different classroom settings and student needs.

*Lessons utilizing the BOLT magnetometer and on charger event blocks will not work with BOLT+.
