Fun Automation with Green Fingers
Students will take on the role of a Smart Gardener and learn how they can program a micro:bi t in the context of gardening. They will build their own Self-Watering System that is able to water the soil automatically when the soil moisture level is low.
The students will learn how to build circuits and program their micro:bit to perform the assigned task. With automation, there is no need to worry about forgetting to water the plants!
