Finch Robots for micro:bit

The Finch Robot takes coding off the screen and into the real world. Powered by the BBC micro:bit, this durable, ready-to-go classroom robot drives, draws and senses — a hands-on way for students to see their code come to life. One robot scaffolds learning from the first years of primary school through to senior secondary, so it grows with your students across year levels.
