Beaded board vs Rolf Connect Coding

A digital beaded board for children to practise several learning goals. This beaded board is not meant to improve children’s motorics, but to stimulate creativity and practising hand-eye coordination. In this application children can recreate several patterns with virtual beads. There are round and squared boards. Apart for the recreating, they can also design their own board. It is possible to share the beaded boards with other people. Of course it is possible to switch this feature off if this feature is not desired in class. In the settings menu, you can set your preferences for the app. You can switch the sounds on and off, enable/disable the share functionality and get to know Meester Dennis. I would like to emphasize that this application is not for improving children’s motorics. If this is desired, then I advise to use a real beaded board, such that the children can feel the beads in their hands.

App for use with Rolf Connect, Coding Rolf Connect combines physical learning with 21st century skills. Rolf Connect Coding teaches kids how to think in a computational way, making it easy and fun to pick up the basic logic skills behind programming. A small robot wants to explore the solar system and travels from Mercury all the way to Neptune and you can help him by giving him instructions on how to get parts for his rocket. Levels on Mercury can be played without a hub, the other levels require a hub and a set of blocks The hub and set of blocks can be bought at Rolf Education: http://rolfeducation.com/
