Introduction to micro:bit®
Introduction to micro:bit®Students will be able to create a program that controls the LED lights on a micro:bit®. |
Math with micro:bit®
micro:bit® Rounding to the Nearest TenStudents will be able to create a program that uses micro:bit® inputs to round numbers based on place value.micro:bit® Rounding to the Nearest HundredStudents will be able to create a program that uses micro:bit® inputs to round numbers based on place value.micro:bit® Rounding with DecimalsStudents will be able to use micro:bit® inputs to round decimals based on place value.micro:bit®: Graphing Points on a Coordinate PlaneStudents will be able to program a micro:bit® as input, and navigate to specific points on a coordinate plane. |
Science with micro:bit®
micro:bit®: Animal Response to the EnvironmentCreate a program using a micro:bit® and conditionals in Scratch to demonstrate how animals receive and react to different types of information from their environment. |
Social Studies with micro:bit®
Revolutionary War Timeline with the BBC micro:bit®Students will be able to use events, conditionals, variables, and inputs from a micro:bit® controller to create an interactive timeline.Interactive Map of the 13 Colonies with the BBC micro:bit®Students will be able to use conditionals, variables, and BBC micro:bit® inputs to create an interactive map of the 13 colonies. They will be able to break a large program into smaller tasks to ease program development. |
