What is a Microbit?

Hello everyone today I will be talking about a coding board the Microbit. This coding board is from the U.K. It is pretty much a Europe version of the kid bright and smaller. So let me explain the Microbit is really small and only has a few LED lights and 3 buttons though there are a few advantages and disadvantages for the Microbit. Let's start with the advantages first.


 So the Microbit is a lot smaller than the kid bright and since it is a lot smaller than the kid bright it can be used as a wearable watch. Since it is smaller than the kid bright it doesn't mean that it can do less things than the kid bright. They both can do multiple things and are both very similar. Like for example, they both have a LED screen and they both have 3 buttons. The Microbit can be able to play on the website so you don't have to download anything unlike the kid bright. The kid bright does have a simulator though. There are free tutorials on the website or the app on how to make codes and games. You can make advance things like cars or robots by watching people make them on Youtube or websites. It has a tilt sensor so that means you can shake it and do other things cool with that.
Next is the disadvantages of the Microbit. So first you can't really draw a lot of detailed pictures or really big pictures with the LED screen on the Microbit. The buttons are really small. Since the board is small the buttons are also small and they are really small. They are not too small until it is like unpressable, but all I am saying is that if you have big hands you have the ability to literally BREAK or DESTROY this board with a push of a finger. Speaking of DESTROYING things coding boards are really easy to break. They can break by water or by hand.



There are many things you can do with the Microbit. Like for example a duct tape watch or step counter, Robots or cars or make your own rock paper scissors game with the tilt sensor that is in the board. Anyways that is all I am going to talk about today bye!

Interland - Be Internet Awesome from Google

Hello everyone! It is me Focus and today I will be talking about Interland from Google! You might be confused about what Interland is. So Interland is a game that was created by Google to let kids play. The game teaches about the internet.  Interland - Be Internet Awesome  There are 4 stages. The first stage teaches you that we need to be nice to everyone on the internet and that we should learn who are the bullies and who are the innocent. The second stage is about information on the internet. We should know which news are lies and which are true. We can't let our selves be deceived by the fake news on the internet! Don't just trust what everything on the internet is true! We must know which is true and fake. The third stage is about who we should share our information about on the internet, for example, your location of where you know you should send it to your friends and family, not the public. There is also information about your number, ID number and sec...

Some news about school!

It might sound boring I know, but it's at least some news because schools were cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Yesterday the school called and said that they will open on the 1st of July. So here we are I told my friend Andy and he said that he knew and that we will get the outfit and books at around the 11th this month I think. I didn't actually know when I had to get my outfit and books because my Mom only told me the date when school will open. Also that I got in the INTER program or international program (hooray!). Andy said that maybe I will have to get the outfit and books on the same date. So I then asked my Mom and apparently its not the same date. I have to get my books and outfit on the 21st this month. I was confused why It wasn't the same date until my Mom told me since I was in the INTER program the outfit and the books are not the same. I then aske...
