Today in Computing, our Year Four pupils coded their very own Rock, Paper, Scissors game using the BBC Micro:Bit – and it was brilliant fun!
Building on our growing coding knowledge, pupils learnt how to use the Micro:Bit’s accelerometer to trigger the game with a shake gesture.
This meant that simply shaking the Micro:Bit would kick off a random selection – rock, paper or scissors – using clever logic, variables and random number generation.
Our pupils were so excited to test their creations and challenge each other – it was wonderful to see them debugging, improving and sharing ideas like real programmers!
👉 Don’t forget:
Please return your child’s Micro:Bit pack every Monday, ready for our next Computing lesson.
We’d also love to hear how your child is getting on with their Micro:Bit at home!
Any success stories or photos?

We’re incredibly proud of our young coders – keep it up, Year 4!
