Stop spending hours planning on how you'll integrate 21st century skills into your lesson plans.

Don’t second guess how a lesson integrates with curriculum standards.

Lessons need not be boring. There are enough STEM Labs and Activities for you to teach a different lesson every week of the year!

Minimize replacement costs with the robot that can survive even the most aggressive temper tantrum toss.

Don't be held back by budget constraints.


Teach invaluable transferable skills to your students.







HOW CAN THE 123 BE USED IN THE CLASSROOM


LEARN TO PROGRAM 3 DIFFERENT WAYS:

There's three ways to code the 123 robot that grows more challenging while introducing new concepts as young learners progress from one method to the next.


BEGINNER

Create sequences using the touch-sensitive buttons on the 123 Robot. Control movements and sounds to learn basic logic and problem solving.


INTERMEDIATE

Insert physical coding cards into the revolutionary VEX Coder to send commands wirelessly to the 123 Robot. Using the VEX Coder and physical cards, students can learn real programming away from screens.


ADVANCED

Unlock the full power of your 123 Robot with VEXcode 123, powered by Scratch Blocks, to Drag. Drop. Drive.


Avoid making mistakes by choosing tried-and-true lessons that are easy to follow and create a classroom full of inquisitive learners. Each lesson contains hands-on lessons with guided explorations that encourage teamwork and collaboration. They are also curriculum-aligned, so you don't have to determine how these lessons meet curriculum standards. watch our webinar to learn how:

WE KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO WORRY YOU'RE NOT DOING ENOUGH FOR YOUR STUDENTS.

We've been supporting educators for the past 21 years to implement solutions within thousands of schools across North America. We'd love to help you.





WE ALREADY USE ANOTHER EDUCATIONAL ROBOT,

WHY SWITCH?




No devices necessary and no apps to download to get started.

Units are built into the 123 robots so students know exactly where the robot will land each time.

You don't need a large space to use the robots.

Students don't get distracted with driving the robot around like a remote control car.

Other robots are seen as a toy and not a stepping stone to seamlessly transition to more advanced robotics products.
