micro:bit CPD from us at U Can Too!
Join us for a micro:bit-focused day with a high dose of creativity!
Perfect for KS2 teachers, KS3 teachers computing and D&T teachers, and makerspace staff.
Having used micro:bits in many settings for many years, we've got plenty to share!👇

[Su Adams @SuAdamsEdIT]

@GeekyNicki Awesome!

[Su Adams @SuAdamsEdIT]

@teknoteacher Haha, I did similar with a book, tapped the side to turn the page 😆

[Su Adams @SuAdamsEdIT]

We're so looking forward to delivering this CPD. We already have a great mix of primary, secondary & SEN teachers, so we're set to have a fantastic cohort!

If you're interested in finding out more about the micro:bit and getting really hands-on with creative results, join us 🤩

Hi #caschat friends! We're running a really exciting CPD event in Maidstone in June! Would be amazing to see some of you there to bring a creative flair to your #microbit computing lessons! 😊

[Su Adams @SuAdamsEdIT]

High-value micro:bit CPD!

Learn from @UCanTooTech's 10years of using micro:bits. We'll explore options to get the micro:bit controlling motors & lights?

Share the fun, benefit from our knowledge, incl tips & tricks and take away kit at our upcoming CPD at our lovely offices. 👇

I love delivering our @UCanTooTech Drone Assault Course workshop. Thursday's Students said they loved using computing creatively & applying it in ways they would have never thought possible.
Purposeful learning with a huge dollop of fun! @MGGS_ @STEMLearningUK @STEMLearning_AS

@oswald808 Hi Curtis, It's great to hear from you. How are you? I've just followed you back so you can DM me now :)

[Su Adams @SuAdamsEdIT]

I delivered our hub's termly Crumble course yesterday. As usual, the teachers went away very enthused & are looking forward to using their loan kits with their classes :)

Courses nearly always fall just before a term ends. The next course for Kent will be 26th Mar.
@CompHubKent

[Redfern Electronics @RedfernElec]

If you're in an English maintained school, there's FREE Crumble training up-for-grabs! https://t.co/IMXGkArZNg better yet, eligible schools will be PAID to do the course

[Su Adams @SuAdamsEdIT]

Can you believe these were made from start to finish by year 2 children (ages 6-7) in just one day!

What an amazing group to work with; their hard work is shown in the results of their builds including programming to control their makes using #microbits & @elecfreaks' Ring:bit

[U Can Too Tech @UCanTooTech]

We've had a fantastic day today working with year 2 children. Today we were combining Computing with D&T to enable the children to create #microbit controlled ferris wheels!

[Su Adams @SuAdamsEdIT]

Such a fantastic class to work with! We really enjoyed supporting pupils in making their automatons using multiple cams & followers. A total of 16 automatons were built, with pupils adding the animals they would like to travel with if they were the main character of this book 😁

[U Can Too Tech @UCanTooTech]

Yesterday we had the pleasure of working with the lovely year six children of Our Lady Hartley Primary School who built #microbit controlled automatons inspired by the fantastic book by @charliemackesy - The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse.

[Su Adams @SuAdamsEdIT]

Such great ideas!

[Redfern Electronics @RedfernElec]

We had plenty of interest in the DIY directional arrows we had at #Bett2024! We have plenty of ideas for you on our blog 😊 https://t.co/5kd3eo7PKy

[U Can Too Tech @UCanTooTech]

We're excited to be back in the office to investigate some of the new tech from @elecfreaks we picked up at #Bett2024 - we're looking at innovative ways to incorporate #microbit into our Arcade games and adding #AI content to our workshops!

[U Can Too Tech @UCanTooTech]

After visiting #Bett2024 we're very excited about investigating how these Climate Action Kits from @Forward__EDU can be used in schools to build on our previous work on climate action.

You can check out some of our previous projects here: https://t.co/ONenN5uL28

[U Can Too Tech @UCanTooTech]

We're looking forward to generating lots of ideas for combining @MakeyMakey with #microbit in some of our workshops! Two of our favourite pieces of tech together; another great find at #Bett2024!

[U Can Too Tech @UCanTooTech]

It's hard to believe this was 2 weeks ago!
What a day we had celebrating the semester-long programme working with local Realschule students in Davos. We loved partnering with @salesforce once again to make a difference with students through purposeful climate-related activities!

[Su Adams @SuAdamsEdIT]

@elecfreaks This is Fantastic news! Well done!

[Su Adams @SuAdamsEdIT]

I'm so pleased we headed to the @Forward__EDU stand @BETT. Their great kits use the amazing JacDac connectors, which provide easy connection and daisychaining of components. Combining these with Climate Action projects and brilliant build elements has created a fab #microbit kit
