Lucky Dice (ages 9-12)

February 8, 2025

Creative Computing Club

Ages 9-12

Celebrate Chinese New Year of the Snake and program an electronic die with Python – can you predict what fortune 2025 will bring? Our high-rollers create electronic dice using micro:bits and the text-based programming language of Python. People born in the year of the wood snake are believed to be intuitive, strategic, and intelligent – learn how to create random numbers and shake the micro:bit to display them, and design animations to show that your die is rolling! Sss-surprisingly good fun.
