Great way to use micro:bits from @mrmorrison.co.uk 💡

Mr Morrison @mrmorrison.co.uk · Sep 3

Today's @microbit.org project is a night light 💡. It uses the light sensors on the micro:bit to measure light level and turn on the light when it gets dark.

Oh, no, Beebee is sick today. How many things can a simple animatronic robot show? Yes, no, sick, sad, what can you think of?

More fun with @microbit.org and the Climate Action Kit. My grade 5s built a wind turbine and a monitor that waters a plant when moisture percentage falls below 30%. Excellent response from students.

Working on PvP tennis on the @microbit.org and having some success! 🍓🎾Shake to return the virtual ball. If you shake at the wrong moment you miss the ball and you lose the rally! Kids can adapt the animations and timings. Code here 👉 makecode.microbit.org/S31157-43726...

My #fourthgrade Ss & robotic art at our #artshow! It was a big hit! Ss chose artwork to recreate or reimagine. Using @microbit.org and @birdbraintech & @MSMakeCode they added lights, motors and sensors. The shark was a favorite! #STEMeducation #Coding #makerspace #electronics
