Tech-Mas Micro:bit Challenges
You are going to explore light through the LED grid of a micro:bit. For this challenge you will:
- Work in groups of 2-3
- Experiment, fail, then try something else
- When tutorials are provided, use them!
Day 1: Play with LEDS
- Micro:bits have a 5x5 LED grid. Draw some 5x5 images you want to download to the micro:bit (5x5 Grid worksheet)
