Data used for this activity

Assembly Instructions

Functionality

micro:bit A Button

  • Move forward to different years from 2009 to 2019.

  • Each year is represented by a lit LED on the micro:bit.

micro:bit B Button

  • Move back to different years from 2009 to 2019.

  • Each year is represented by a lit LED on the micro:bit.

Neopixel Fairy Lights

  • One of the rows of the neopixel has colour lights representing different levels.

    • 🟢 green - Safe.

  • Provinces location on the Fairy Light from left to right: Ontario, Saskatchewan, Yukon, Quebec, Manitoba, British Columbia, Alberta, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Northwest Territories, Nova Scotia, PEI, Nunavut.

So much knowledge, so many ideas, congratulations on going over all the projects!

yellow - Caution.

red - Danger.
