Abstract
The use of robotic objects and platforms has the potential to provide interactive methods that generate engagement. This study proposes the design and implementation of YachaBot as an educational tool to level and reinforce topics of mathematics for fourth-grade elementary students. YachaBot consists of three learning blocks based on the curriculum followed throughout the school year: measurement units, number operations, and geometric analysis. Through this system, users can develop cognitive skills while having fun.
