Pro-Bot Lessons offers a series of lessons and guided explorations to introduce Pro-Bot and all of its features to students. Each lesson includes notes on implementation for the teacher, along with student instructions and worksheets to print and distribute. The "Focus on Geometry" section covers Grades 3–8 geometry standards: lines and angles, polygons, perimeter and area, coordinates, symmetry and much more. Because students can move Pro-Bot any distance and turn it at any angle, exploring geometry is a natural fit.

Pro-Bot Lessons is integrated with the Pro-Bot Online Emulator so students can learn online or with the actual Pro-Bot.
