Planning Questions
Are you working by yourself or in a team?
I will be working by myself
What materials will you need for your project?
I will need simple programming tools and a Micro Bit.
What is your plan to create in this project?
I will search online and find different thing to make. I will find different ways to program a Micro Bit and use the website to put it into action.
What unique qualities will your project have?
The projects won't have one screen. You will be able to somewhat interact with the light sequences.
Day 1- I made the list of 10 good ideas and planning questions.
Day 2- I made the code and downloaded it to the micro bit.
Day 3- I made a second code for a story and uploaded it to the Micro-Bit.
Day 4- I was at the day of awesomeness for the entire hour
Day 5- I made the code for my 3rd Project. I casted it to the Micro-Bit successfully.
Day 6- I made the final product. I tested it and had to tweak a couple of the blocks in the code. Finally, the freezing stopped and the music would actually play.
Day 7- I attempted to add some special features but I failed. It stayed as the original version which you can see above.

Using a Micro-Bit and the Micro-Bit coding website, I created moving images with the 25 LEDS because I had a specific idea that I could use on this Micro-Bit. There is a lot of creativity that you incorporate into this. There is moving images and multiple ways the LEDS can flash.
During this process, I learned the simple ways of coding. I learned how you could use simple words to make complicated series of lights. This is exactly how coding a Micro-Bit works.
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 Knowledge Constructor because I had a very small understanding of how to code. I then played around and looked at simple ways to code Micro-Bits. This way, I was able to use simple code on a Micro-Bit.
A challenge I overcame on this project was the coding not connecting to the Micro-Bit. I was able to do it by changing the way the code works. It was too complicated and the pieces just didn't go together. Sadly, I had to make more easy and simple products, but they at least actually connected and showed up.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change how simple the coding was. The codes were really short and didn't take as long as I would like then to. The reason why I would change it is because the coding wasn't as diverse as I wanted. I could only use the starter pieces weren't as interesting as the other blocks.
