<div dir="ltr"><b>I have Ozobots and love them. </b> I've had mine for <u>several </u>years now, and yes, they do need an overnight charge now to make it through more than 3 hours of continuous use. I've created many tech/literature lessons with them! Kids love them. And I make this recommendation having had experience with a LOT of different coding robots: Dash & Dot, Spheros, Sphero Minis, Botley, Code & Go Mice, makeBot, Cosmos. <div>Botley and Code & Go are great for K&1st, but once a student can read, Ozobots are the way to go. I did purchase the rubber "skins" to help them survive falls...and so far we've never damaged a single one (and we have a set of 24). I heartily recommend them!</div><div><br></div><div>Michelle Harris</div><div>Heyworth CUSD #4</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, May 12, 2022 at 8:22 AM Renee Brown via AISLE <<a href="mailto:aisle@list.railslibraries.info">aisle@list.railslibraries.info</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">I'm looking to add some Ozobots to our library.
