I have had many teacher moments where I just listen and look at my kids and feel proud. I am seeing cooperation and teamwork, I am also seeing kids thrive in a new atmosphere! Kids who with problem solving in math is difficult but are succeeding in this. I am so grateful for this opportunity and to see these kids in a new light. I am seeing them grow in confidence and exceeding at a new skill! Thanks again! - Teacher, Bennington, NE

"Awesome!" "I love my finchy!" "So cool!" These were just a few of the comments heard from students as we explored the Finch Robots this winter. Students in grades Kindergarten through 4th grade utilized the 4Cs as they collaborated, created, communicated and thought critically to learn to program their robots. One of my favorite parts of this experience is that the Finches were so easy to get started. The Finches went through mazes, danced, made music and more. High impact, high engagement - these robots were a hit! -Jenny Lussier, Librarian, Middlefield, CT

The Finch Robots add more depth and excitement to our summer programming. Campers enter the room engaged and continue to be challenged well after they figure out the basics of the programming languages and capabilities of the robots. This keeps the kids motivated and hungry for more, AKA the best feeling a camp instructor can have! - Luke Hladek, Teacher, Wheeling, WV

I have already noticed a significant difference in this year's student learning with the Finch robots when compared to last year's, who did not have the access to the robots. The Finch robots make it easy to observe exactly what their code is doing--and it's fun! -Sara Kazemi, AP Computer Science Teacher, San Diego, CA

What I liked as an educator was the true differentiation that occurred when using the Finch Robots with my students. Typically, it is difficult to design a lesson that meets each student at their skill level and engage them at the same time. With the Finch, we had students with little to no computer programming experience and other more advanced students. The end results were successful projects created by students at different ability levels. — Wendy Steiner, High School English Teacher, Carnegie, PA

The amazing thing about the Finch Robots was how quickly my students were able to figure out how to use them and make them do what they wanted -- this was a major confidence boost for many of our students that were less confident with new technologies. Plus, they had a blast while learning! What's better than that? — Leslie Gonzalez, Middle School Library Media Specialist, Athens, GA

The Finch robots are so simple to use and easily span classes. It was literally a "snap" to use the Finches with our 3 and 4 year old classes! Overheard in a 4 year old class: "This is the best day of my life!" — Martha Brower, Technology Director, Reidsville, NC
