Pupils needing extra support

Should use the Download: Pedometer .hex file or the link: Microsoft MakeCode - Pedometer Project and make small changes to personalise it (for example, change the icon in the ‘show icon’ block or the number of steps in the operator block); could plan their remix on a whiteboard before starting to help them organise their ideas, break the task into smaller steps and use a visual reference while programming.

Pupils working at greater depth

Should use multiple conditions using an ‘if, else’ block instead of an ‘if’ block (for example, if steps = 10, show a star, else if steps = 20 show a message); could add extra features, such as a music block so the micro:bit also plays a sound when the step goal is reached.
