Micro:Bits V2.0

Your school received in Sept 2023 a class set of 15 Micro:Bits! 

They are courtesy of the Student Success Portfolios 

(Experiential Learning and Science Curriculum). 

PD is following a 3-part model:

Micro:Bit 101: An introduction to the Micro:Bit, its functions, how to code using a variety of blocks and sample projects.

Micro:Bit 202: Using Micro:Bit projects to connect to the coding curriculum in Math and Science. Exploring advanced blocks.

Micro:Bit 303: Designing projects to match with cross-curricular expectations (coding+) 

Micro:Bits will be part of the Skills ON Competitions for the DDSB this year. These will serve as great open-ended coding challenges for students! We will make these available post Skills as well for teachers to test out.

Our hope is to develop a coding continuum to post here. This will be a strong resource for educators getting started with teaching coding in their Elementary Classrooms. Furthermore we are working on a series of Micro:Bit project resources for reference. These will be uploaded here starting in Fall 2024.
