Autumn 1
This term, children programmed an online, micro: bit simulator. This was used to show how a step counter works to record steps. The purpose of this was to understand how imputing codes will give a device or toy an output. Children managed to programme the micro:bit simulator and use the coding system to help them improve their times tables. The children then programmed the micro:bit simulator so that it became a magnetometer. Children had the opportunity to research toys that used a micro; bit for inputs and outputs.
