Term 3 | Micro:bit projects and online safety
Overview
They'll explore more into Micro:bit's features while learning important online safety practices through practical coding projects and a special quiz.
Micro:bit introduction
A basic introduction to coding with the Micro:bit MakeCode editor.
Micro:bit tools
This was our first workbook for the BBC micro:bit and has a selection of simple projects to help you get started.
Using the radio function
Explore wireless communication by introducing your class to the Micro:bit’s radio function. Encourage them to think creatively about how devices can interact.
Using the accelerometer
Learn how modern devices detect their orientation with our lesson on the Micro:bit's accelerometer. It's a hands-on way to incorporate physical sensors into your coding projects.
Safer Internet Day quiz
Create a fun quiz for Safer Internet Day using list variables or ‘arrays’ to manage questions.
