Concepts Covered: Reading sensor data, adding extensions, and controlling visual displays.

 Activities:

• Demonstrate how to read and act using built--in sensors

• Demonstrate How to search for and add extensions to MakeCode

• Write short programs that display built-in sensor values- tilt, temperature, light,etc.

Materials: Microbit, MicroUSB to USB-A cable, 3V MicroBit battery, USB-A--->USB-C adaptor;

Main Project Option 1: Arcade Game 

BUILD 1: Microbit with battery; Micro-usb cable

Build-2:Neopixels

Neopixels: Attach Neopixel strip using alligator clips to pins 3V, GND, and 0 and add the Neopixels Extension.

• Vary the behaviors of the strip utilizing built-in sensors.

Main Project Option 2: Infinity Mirror :Combine circuit design and programming to build and code an interactive Infinity Mirror art project, which changes its behavior based on  the built-in  accelerometer/tilt sensors.

Infinity Mirror can be built into  classroom window, using a fixed mirror
