Description
The MakeKit Wheel:bit is a three-wheeled micro:bit robot car students build from scratch and code themselves. Clip a pen to the front and it becomes a drawing machine — turning geometry and angles into art the class can see.
What's included and how it works:
- A build-your-own micro:bit robot car with laser-cut, sustainable parts, designed and made in Norway
- An open, customisable design — rebuild the body with cardboard, 3D printing or a laser cutter
- Code in MakeCode blocks, JavaScript or Python, or load a ready-made program
- Suitable from around age 11
- Please note: a BBC micro:bit is required (not included) and can be reused across other builds
What your students practise:
- Coding and computational thinking
- Maths — geometry, distance and angles through the drawing robot
- Physics and design — motors, acceleration and building a car that works
Unlike closed, pre-built robot cars, Wheel:bit is made to be changed and rebuilt — repairable, sustainable and truly the student's own.
