Play, discover, challenge
and inspire with Sphero
Sphero robots are a fun and interactive way to teach programming in classrooms. From math and science to programming and the arts, hands on activities expand the imaginations and help shape a brighter future.
Introducing Sphero SPRK+
The Sky is the Limit
You don’t need to be a programming expert to use Sphero. It can be used by all ages, of all abilities, across all subjects.Start teaching the fundamentals of programming in a fun and inspiring way. Fuel your class’ curiosity and creativity through connected play and coding. SPRK+ is powered by the Lightning Lab app, easily allowing you to learn programming, in a hands on way, such as navigating a maze, programming a painting, mimicking the solar system and swimming across the water. The possibilities are endless and the only limit is your imagination.
SPRK+ in Education
SPRK+ brings students together to engage in STEAM concepts. Students can work collaborativley, or at their own pace and track their progress. The robot and app teaches students of all ages foundational programming by enhancing cross-curricular STEAM projects. SPRK+ also enhances creativity, problem solving, design thinking and engagement.
Primary School
In Primary Schools, Sphero robots are being integrated into all subject areas. Young students are learning early concepts of coding while fostering 21st century skills. Students learn to think and act like engineers, exposing them to real world problems.
Secondary School
Secondary school students can explore more advanced concepts of logic, design thinking and computer science. With more complex variables, sensors and text programming, secondary school students are taking programming to the next level and actually learning the foundations of coding language.
Lighting Lab
