Micro:bit missions: Take a chance on me (Integrating Mathematics) (Years 6-8)
This resource comprises two activities that can be used together or if you prefer as individual activities to explore the concept of chance in Mathematics. Students will use computational thinking and use the micro:bit as a digital system to generate and collect data and implement and/or modify a program (pseudocode, visual programming and general-purpose programming).
