Hi Matthew,

Thanks for reading! I agree, littleBits are definitely great for higher level learners. I've also seen them used in many ways to help struggling students build more solid connections with ideas like circuitry, so I think they can be beneficial at all levels. They do also offer lots of great extension activities as well. Hope you have a great weekend!
