Everything needed to start, in one box: the micro:bit Smart Home Kit, a micro:bit V2 board, and eleven self-paced lessons in the Sammat Online Academy. Children wire up a sensor, write a few blocks of code, and a light comes on or a window opens — one of the clearest ways to show what a program actually does in the physical world.
What's included:
1 x micro:bit Smart Home Kit
1 x micro:bit GO pack (V2) — board, battery pack with 2 x AAA batteries and a USB cable
11 self-paced lessons in the Sammat Online Academy, with build steps, code and video walkthroughs
Kit contains a sensor:bit board, OLED screen, rainbow LED, relay, DC motor, 180° servo, submersible pump, temperature, sound, light, crash and soil moisture sensors, screwdriver, USB cable, AAA battery box and printed manual
The lessons cover:
Voice-activated lights, a smart fan and automatic windows
A water level alarm, a decibel tester and an intruder detection system
Reading a sensor value and using it to trigger an output
Block coding in Microsoft MakeCode, from first program to independent project
You will need a computer, phone or tablet with internet access to load the Microsoft MakeCode editor. Written in Australia for Australian classrooms and homes, and worked through at your own pace — there is no timetable and no expiry on a lesson you have not finished.
