{"product_id":"cubetto-extra-blocs","title":"Cubetto - Extra Blocs","description":"\u003cp\u003eEnhance your Cubetto adventures with this set of Extra Blocs-an essential extension pack designed to expand programming possibilities and keep young coders engaged. This collection of 16 tangible coding blocks allows children to build longer sequences, increase complexity in their routines, and continue programming even if original pieces go missing. Each block is colour-coded and corresponds to a specific action-move forward, turn left, turn right, or execute a function-giving learners the tools to construct and refine their own code through hands-on play. Ideal for classrooms, makerspaces, or home learning environments, the Extra Blocs pack ensures uninterrupted, imaginative exploration with Cubetto.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy this product is beneficial for educational use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpands coding possibilities by allowing longer and more complex sequences.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDevelops logical thinking, sequencing, and problem-solving skills.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncourages a hands-on, screen-free approach to programming.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReinforces early STEM concepts through physical coding.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports collaborative play by enabling group programming challenges.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with the Cubetto Coding Robot and Programming Board (sold separately).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClassroom ideas for incorporating this product:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtended Programming Sequences: Challenge students to create longer code patterns.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirectional Coding Exploration: Explore movement patterns by mixing and matching different blocks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollaboration Tasks: Assign different students to add coding blocks to a shared sequence.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoding Challenges: Set up a classroom race where students use blocks to navigate Cubetto to a goal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStorytelling and Coding Integration: Use extra blocks to program Cubetto through a themed story adventure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct specifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet Includes: 16 Cubetto coding blocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlock Functions:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreen Block: Moves Cubetto 15 cm forward\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed Block: Turns right 90 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYellow Block: Turns left 90 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue Block: Executes a function command\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatibility: Works with Cubetto and Cubetto Programming Board (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended Age: 3+ years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Modern Teaching Aids NZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42238347214961,"sku":"CUB002","price":71.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/7633\/6753\/files\/cub002_cubetto-extra-blocs.webp?v=1760000903","url":"https:\/\/teaching.co.nz\/products\/cubetto-extra-blocs","provider":"Modern Teaching Aids NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
