    Step 3       Now you will go to the Microsoft Micro:bit editor. Click on New
                                  project.

                     Step 4       Write your project name and click on create.

                     Introduction to Block-Based Programming

                     Block-based programming is an easy and enjoyable way to learn to code,
                     especially for beginners. Students can program the micro:bit by dragging

                     and dropping colorful blocks that fit together like puzzle pieces using the
                     MakeCode IDE. With this method, learning how to code does not involve

                     typing out difficult commands.

                     Students can use MakeCode to write programs that allow their micro:bit

                     to react to buttons and sensors, play music, show images, and control
                     lights. Each block may be easily joined to create a program, and each one

                     represents a unique action, like “play a sound” or “show a heart."

                                                                           Exploring the Micro:bit for Programming  45
