Mrs. Martin's PreK students had a bright and colorful time exploring the letter Ee! ✏️✨
They wrote the letters using markers, then an Ozobot traced their letters. The best part? The Ozobots lit up to match the marker colors because they can sense and respond to color! 🌈🤖
Such a fun way to combine early literacy and coding skills!
Mrs. Elliott, ITRT, guided students through this engaging hands-on activity. 💙
