Visit https://makecode.microbit.org/ and build the Thermometer program above, using the Python editor (not blocks editor). If you have a physical Micro:Bit machine then flash it onto the Micro:Bit for testing. Once you are happy with your code, share the project, grab the unique project ID from the end of the URL and submitted it below […]

Visit your Pong Game code at https://makecode.microbit.org/ and add a script which will pause the game when both the A and B buttons are pressed. If you have a physical Micro:Bit machine then flash it onto the Micro:Bit for testing. Once you are happy with your code, share the project, grab the unique project ID

Visit your Pong Game code at https://makecode.microbit.org/ and add a variable called score and add a script so that each time the paddle and ball meet, the score variable is updated by 1 and this score is shown at the end of the game. If you have a physical Micro:Bit machine then flash it onto

Visit your Pong Game code at https://makecode.microbit.org/ and speed up the game so that the ball moves faster. If you have a physical Micro:Bit machine then flash it onto the Micro:Bit for testing. Once you are happy with your code, share the project, grab the unique project ID from the end of the URL and

Visit https://makecode.microbit.org/ and redevelop the code so that it shows the letters N, S, E or W when it is within 5 degrees of the N, S, E and W bearing (e.g.: if the bearing is 093 º, the Micro:Bit will display ‘E’). If you have a physical Micro:Bit machine then flash it onto the

Imagine you have been told to walk on a bearing of 270 º (W). Visit https://makecode.microbit.org/ and develop the code so that it displays an arrow to help keep you in the correct direction. The arrow should appear when the Micro:Bit is pointed within 5 degrees of the bearing of 270 º and should be

Visit https://makecode.microbit.org/, create a new project and reproduce the dice code from the previous mission, but change the code so that it displays a new value each time the device is shaken. If you have a physical Micro:Bit machine then flash it onto the Micro:Bit for testing. Once you are happy with your code, share

Visit https://makecode.microbit.org/, create a new project and reproduce the dice code from the previous mission, but change the code so that it displays the appropriate number of dots of a dice face instead of a numerical digit. If you have a physical Micro:Bit machine then flash it onto the Micro:Bit for testing. Once you are

Currently, based on the code above, the dice could pick a zero, and numbers from 7 to 10, which is not in keeping with a standard 6 sided dice. Visit https://makecode.microbit.org/, and rewrite the above code so that it only displays numbers 1-6. If you have a physical Micro:Bit machine then flash it onto the

Visit https://makecode.microbit.org/ and explore the various blocks of code available, then build a simple program of your choice. Try to use some blocks that you have not yet been introduced to. If you have a physical Micro:Bit machine then flash it onto the Micro:Bit for testing. Once you are happy with your code, share the
