If you are looking for something different to do for Halloween 🎃👻 this week I have made a tutorial to create a spooky track in GarageBand (on an iPad). I would say learners of P4 (Age 8) upwards would be able to create a track like this example.

Today I have a @microbit.org version of a very well known game - Rock Paper Scissors 🪨📃✂️. When you shake the micro:bit one of the symbols appears.

My @microbit.org project today is a noise meter..🔊. This displays a graph of noise level input from the microphone on the micro:bit. It then sounds an alarm if the noise gets too high.

Today's @microbit.org project is a proximity beacon📡. You can hide one micro:bit and use another to find it. A nice graph appears on the recieving micro:bit. I've use this as a treasure hunt.

As it is @mathsweek.scot I have put together a few ideas for using the @microbit.org in Maths. Including creating dice, counters, a times tables tester and using the data logging features. #MathsWeekScot

As it's @mathsweek.scot today's @microbit.org project is a times tables tester 😃. On button A it will randomly generate a times table question and on button B reveal the answer. Great to practice times tables in a different way. #MathsWeekScot

Today's @microbit.org project is a night light 💡. It uses the light sensors on the micro:bit to measure light level and turn on the light when it gets dark.

So today's @microbit.org project is what I call 'rotating screen' investigating the accelrometer the same component that phones and tablets use for screen rotation 🔃.

Here's another simple @microbit.org project for the start of the school year - A dice 🎲. You very quickly have a working dice you can use for a maths lesson, board games or something else!

A new school year is the perfect time to get started with the @microbit.org 😃. Here's my favourite starter project - creating animations 💻.
I've created new video tutorials based on my popular micro:bit starter lessons, they will be appearing on Youtube 🎥. #microbitchampion
