Roamer is offered as a range of standard Roamers. Each provides a starting point for using the Roamer as a tool using the familiar Logo-based programming langauage. However they can all be modified by changing the behaviour and keypad graphic very easily to become anything you want them to be using any sort of language.
The Standard Roamers come with a keypad appropriate to an age and ability. They form a scaffolded approach to control and Logo, providing progression in the introduction of key educational expectations (like being able to move beyond counting to use of number) and programming skills.

For the Foundation Stage
This is the simplest of the standard Roamers. It uses counting to determine the number of moves to make. It also has four user keys that the teacher can define to tailor it to any activity.
For ages 5 - 7
The Infant Roamer recognises the need to introduce number at this age, so this keypad moves beyond just counting. Repeat is also featured so children can start to explore patterns in Maths. And a simplified music facility is present.
In addition you can change the speed and volume of Roamer.
For ages 7 - 9
This Roamer is the next structured step in developing the Logo language. Procedures are introduced, as well as programmable input and output lines. Speed, volume and strength are all variable which with the user defined keys means that this little robot is incredibly flexible.
For ages 9+
This Roamer is the most advanced of the standard Roamers and as you would expect develops the control possibilities enormously. To fully use the programmable inputs and outputs you would need to add a control pod. Without the control pod you have access to the onboard single input and output as well as greater flexibility with the parameters and procedures.
This is the ideal package if you want to use one Roamer throughout the school. The pack contains: One Base Platform and all four Standard Keypads (Early Years, Infant K1, Primary and Junior). If you move Roamer from an Early Years Classroom to an upper Primary classroom you can change the keypad in a few seconds. You do not need different robots for different age groups. By adjusting the Roamer students build on previous knowledge.
