KUBO Coding

STEM team leader and class teacher

Used KUBO Coding for 7–12 months

Apr 2021

It is engaging for the children. There are lots of activities and differentiated extras that mean it can be used by different year groups and abilities.

Soraya Beech found KUBO Coding:
  • Significantly improves attainment
    understanding of coding and algorithms
  • Significantly builds student knowledge
    the children are using coding language in a "play"setting.
  • Significantly increases student collaboration
    The children have worked in small groups of 4/5 with a teacher or in pairs.
  • Does not significantly reduce teacher workload
    At the moment a teacher needs to be with the activity but as the children become more familiar with how Kubo works, they could be left to solve problems and work out solutions therefore reducing the time needed by the teacher. Discussion with pupils is vital though to get them to explain how they did a task.
  • Significantly improves teacher knowledge and skills
    The lessons are well thought out and easy to follow.
