Code Savvy offers a free 16-day curriculum that immerses students in creating with the micro:bit. By the end of this curriculum, students will have designed a project that addresses a global goal they care about. 🌍💡Get access to the Byte-Sized Challenge on our website today! https://buff.ly/3vzivnO
