Frank P. Long Intermediate School students recently collaborated on an exciting project — programming infinite loops for Sphero Indi cars, which are color-sensing coding robots. The project provided students with hands-on experience in coding and robotics. The Indi cars were borrowed from the Model Schools program at Eastern Suffolk BOCES. Students explored the functionality of the robots and applied their creativity to design their infinite loops.
