About This Item

Description

The Strawbees Robotic Inventions for micro:bit 10-pack is a classroom-sized add-on kit that integrates electronics and robotics with the Strawbees construction system. It allows students to build and code moving robots and mechanical structures using the BBC micro:bit and block-based programming. This is an add-on kit, that requires a separate purchase of Strawbees connectors and straws, as well as the micro:bit board, USB cables, and batteries, and to code the robotic inventions, students need to access and install the official Strawbees MakeCode extension. This set is intended for students in grades 3 to 9.
