Over this half term, Y3 have been learning how to use the Micro:bits. We have learned all sorts of skills such as how to connect them to the computer, how to download our algorithms onto the Micro:bits and how we can use the micro:bits in different ways. We have managed to make our names, show emotions and make a message with a string of letters/words. We have also used created our own variables to make a step counter and night light from the Micro:bits. We have also been thinking about where we might see these algorithms used in everyday life. Y3 have also come up with lots of ways they could use Micro:bits in their lives too. Y3 have loved working with the micro:bits. They developed their computer skills as well as their problem solving skills, team building skills and their resilience. Well done Y3.
