Kaibot Screen-Free Cards

Advance your KaiBot capabilities with an Advanced Coding Cards pack. Introduce new logic, repeats, variables, logic, conditions, SEL, color and more to your arsenal.

With this 51-deck of colorful coding cards, you’ll be able to create a variety of interactive programming projects. Kids can build on their critical, foundational skills and start simple, then progress to advanced programming skills. Skills learned can easily transfer to other programming languages.

Screen-free

• Feel free to download a copy of these coding cards for your own use in the classroom or homeschool. On the back of each card features instructions for beginners to start coding.

Use with KaiBot

• These cards can be read by the KaiBot camera sensor. KaiBot can be used to record each card and then simply place KaiBot on the Run card and watch it perform your programmed actions!

Card Types:

Movement

The motion cards relate to the movement and direction of the KaiBot, but these cards can also be used in fun activities to get kids to act out coded programs, like navigating around furniture and obstacles.  

Program & Function

Program cards manage the basic flow of the program in an organized fashion. They also include function cards that can be used to record seperate routines outside of the main code.

Using KaiBot tap each card to record the program, then tap on the Run Program card to play the recorded program. 

Conditionals

Conditional statements always have an “if” part, which tells the program what to do when the condition is true and an “else” part to perform when the condition is false. “else” is optional.

Loop & Repeat

There are two types of loops. Loops will repeat a set number of times. To set the number of times,  place a green * number card after “loop start”. “Repeat until” will continue until the condition is no longer true.

Numbers

Numbers can be used in conjunction with movement, conditionals, loops & variables.

Variables

A variable is a container that holds information that you can access, much like a basket of 3 apples, if you add or remove apples then the value of apples in the basket goes up or down.

Relational Operators

Use operators to compare variables or numbers to each other. You’ll recognize some of these operators from arithmetic and mathematics.

Social Emotional Learning

The use of logic and social-emotional learning go hand in hand. Tap KaiBot on these cards to indicate the desired emotional outcome. 

Inside Kainundrum, a special animation corresponding with the emotion will play above your virtual KaiBot.

Color Mixing

RGB stands for “Red,Green,Blue” and each color can have a maximum of 255 shades each. RGB refers to the three hues of light. Use one or all three to create your own colors. Tap KaiBot up or down on these cards to create your desired color.

Inside Kainundrum, Picasso mode will activate and change the color of your KaiBot’s virtual paintbrush.

Kainundrum Cards

Kainundrum cards are special cards that only work within the virtual world of Kainundrum and will activate different modes on your virtual KaiBot. 

Be sure to look out for the Easter Egg card, you will discover some hidden surprises.
