Get students coding and creating with the BBC micro:bit V2 Go - a pocket-sized computer packed with features to inspire interactive, hands-on learning. This Go kit includes everything needed to get started straight out of the box: a micro:bit V2 board, USB cable, battery holder, and batteries. With built-in sensors, LED display, microphone, and speaker, learners can design digital solutions and bring real-world ideas to life. From Years 3 to secondary school, the micro:bit supports progression from visual coding to advanced text-based programming. With support for MakeCode, Scratch, and Python, students can learn at their own pace while applying computational thinking in diverse curriculum areas. Educational Benefits Fosters digital literacy and logical thinking through coding challenges Builds computational thinking with real-world application Reinforces STEM knowledge by linking code to physical outputs Empowers students to become confident creators and problem-solvers Easily scalable from beginner to advanced coding skills Classroom Ideas Develop musical instruments or sound meters using built-in speaker and mic Program reaction timers, fitness counters, or flashing badges Incorporate into science experiments with data collection and display Build interactive maps, storytelling tools, or wearable tech projects Use in cross-disciplinary projects linking to HASS, English or Health Specifications Includes micro:bit V2 board, USB cable, battery holder and batteries Built-in speaker, microphone, LED matrix and touch logo Features compass, accelerometer, temperature sensor, light sensor Radio and Bluetooth connectivity Programmable via MakeCode, Scratch, and Python Suitable for ages 7+
