Participate and share: Poster 
The purpose of my session is to allow attendees get hands-on experience with Micro:bits and learn how they can be used in the classroom to accompany a computational thinking curriculum, as well as, using this technology to make many other cross-curricular connections. It will be shown how these cross-curricular connections have allowed students to make greater academic gains.
Attendees will leave my session with resources needed to successfully implement this content, ideas, and curriculum into their own classroom. They will get a toolkit for success.
The primary material resource that will be presented will be the Micro:bit, the Climate Action Kit that can be used as an add-on and other sensors to allow for different applications in various student projects.
There will be many hands-on opportunities for attendees to experience how Micro:bits work, how they improve computational thinking skills, and how they can be used in real-world applications to solve problems.
Time presenting on each student project will depend on audience interaction. It will be paced to their interests.
