Micro bit

Science

• The child learned about coding and programming concepts through the use of Micro bit.
• They gained an understanding of the relationship between input and output in technology.
• They explored concepts of electricity and circuits while working with the Micro bit.
• The activity fostered problem-solving skills as the child had to troubleshoot issues with the Micro bit.

For continued development, the child can explore more advanced coding concepts and create more complex programs using the Micro bit. They can also experiment with different sensors and components to expand their understanding of electronics and technology.
