mBot: The Magic Box

In this lesson, students will be introduced to variables. A variable can store and modify information and data. There are some built-in Variables blocks, for example, the “light intensity” Sensing block and the “answer” Sensing block. There exists a category called “Variables”, where students can create variables to store several data collected from, e.g., the “light intensity” and “answer.” Students will explore and experiment with the built-in Variables blocks and use them to create interesting projects.
