Intro to Coding with Micro:bit
Sunday, June 21
1:00pm - 3:00pm
Intended for ages 7–13.
Hosted at Main Branch.
Advanced registration required.
In this hands-on workshop, we will explore coding using the BBC Micro:bit! Learn how to use block-based programming to control LED displays, buttons, and sensors, and create simple interactive projects like digital name badges, reaction timers, and minigames. Students will upload their code to a physical Micro:bit and see their program come to life in real time.
Presented in partnership with Volt Engineering students at J. Clarke Richardson
