Step Counter
Students will use either the acceleration-y or acceleration-x //code.Node sensor and knowledge of their own gait to create a program that mimics a step...
Investigating Sound Levels
Students use the //code.Node sound sensor to investigate various sound levels and create a program to alert the user when the music from their earbuds...
What's the Origin?
Students take their previous knowledge of plotting ordered pairs and apply it to the layout of the //code.Node 5X5 LED array.
Clap On
Students are introduced to an invention from the 1980's that allows you to turn lights on and off by clapping your hands. Student then use Blockly to program...
Light Bulb Efficiency
Students apply their understanding of energy transfer and transformation to investigate and compare the efficiencies of two different light bulbs.
Automatic Nightlight
Students apply their understanding of light behavior to create a program that functions like a nightlight as well as investigating brightness (amplitude)...
Random Number Cube
Students will create a program, using the //code.Node motion sensor, to mimic a number cube. Additionally, students will use basic probability concepts...
Magnetic Polarity
Students create a program, using the //code.Node magnetic field sensor, that will determine the polarity of a bar magnet.
Blockly Extension: pH
In this activity, students create a Blockly program that displays a solution's pH alongside a text description of the solution (base, acid, or neutral).
Blockly Extension: Evidence of Chemical Reactions
In this activity, students develop a Blockly program that determines whether a chemical change is...
