Today, I attended a workshop hosted by Gary Stager and Sylvia Martinez. It was a great workshop about using Micro:bit. Gary gave some introductory directions and then we had some challenge activities to try to complete in small groups. I worked with Sheila from Virginia Beach and Scott from California (sorry Scott, I can’t remember which city you’re from). We had fun completing a challenge in which we programmed our Micro:bits to pass messages. 

I didn’t take a lot of notes during the workshop. Those that I did take are a little incomplete. That said, I think I captured some of the highlights. The slides that are embedded below contain those notes, links to additional resources, and a video about what Micro:bit is.
