Celebrate February with themed lessons tailored for students in grades K-8 at every skill level! This month, we’re honoring Valentine’s Day, Presidents’ Day, Black History Month, and more with engaging coding lessons that bring these special occasions to life!
Katherine Johnson the Human Robot
Celebrate Black History Month with a lesson honoring Katherine Johnson, one of the first Black female NASA mathematicians. Katherine’s calculations helped land astronauts on the moon.
In this STEM lesson, students will learn about her accomplishments and code Ozobot to create a flight path for a spaceship to land on the moon—just like Katherine did!

How many cookies are in the jar? Introduce your students to variables and how they store information—just like a cookie jar holds tasty treats. In this STEM lesson, students will then create an advanced program to help Ozobot count the cookies in the jar!
Academic Standards: CSTA, ISTE
Grade Levels: 4-6
Subjects: Computer Science
Ozobot has counted all the cookies in the jar! Now, students will combine variables and conditional statements to program Ozobot to signal once it has counted half of the cookies and celebrate once it has counted them all!
Academic Standards: CSTA, ISTE
Grade Levels: 4-6
Subjects: Computer Science
In our final lesson, students will explore functions to program Ozobot to mix and bake the cookies before placing them in the jar. By integrating functions into their program, they’ll transform Ozobot into a master baker and add that perfect finishing touch!
