IMG_0016.movIMG_0022.movI made the micro bit to say "I love you mom!" With a heart. I also made it do a coin flip. T is tails and H is heads. And below are the codes for this project.
I made the microbit to act like a dice, when you shake, it shows a number 1 to 6, shown below. To the left is the coding.
Below are the videos for the code and what the code made the Microbit do. I created the code to make the Microbit play the classic game, Rock, Papers, Scissors.

Using Microbit and the computer I am using, I made the Microbit show a message to my mom and dad, do a coin flip, do a dice roll, and play the classic game of Rock Paper Scissors. The reason I did so many is because I was going to do a message to my parents and do a coin flip, but I realized it was too easy. I did it in under two days. So I decided what to do and I chose to do more.
During this process, I learned more about coding blocks in Microbit. Last year all I did was do a name tag and Rock Paper Scissors. I never used anymore coding than that. But now I know what most coding blocks do. Another thing I learned is how to transfer the coding from the computer into the Microbit. Last year I did not know how to do it so I asked a classmate to help me. He just did it for me instead of teaching me.
The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to Empowered Learner because I decided to go beyond and not just do two easy things. I chose to do several coding projects on the Microbit. I chose to learn more than I already know.
A challenge I overcame on this project was learning how to move the coding from the computer to the Microbit and what all the coding blocks do in the early stages. I was able to do it by asking my brother who has took this class before and he showed me. I also tried out the different coding blocks in my house to see what they do.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change the coding of my messages and add a bit more. The reason why I would change it is because I barely tried to send a message. It took me not even a minute to set up coding to put a message for my parents on the Microbit. So I want to add more to the message. Maybe a thank you for everything you have done for me or something like that.
