The micro:bit resources were used for a Year 5 summer school but are suitable also for Year 6 and 7.  These were created during the COVID-19 pandemic to create an online summer school resource.

There self-learn resources are contextualised around Space (thanks to RAL Space) and feature a number of teachers from the CAS Community and include interviews with professionals.  

All the resources link to the importance of being phyiscally active when using the micro:bit:

Activity 1: Jump For The Moon

Activity 2: Building an Astronaut Core

Activity 3: Beep for safety

Activity 4: Mission control

Activity 5: Speed of light
