The @boardname@ can be used to run an Hour Of Code™ event for beginner of all ages. This document provides a detailed guidance on how to prepare and deliver the event in your school.
Ensure that each computer has access to **internet**.
3) Accounts
Create a classroom in https://www.microbit.co.uk and pre-populate the classroom with student accounts. **Print the student passwords** and cut out each password.
4) Print the activity challenges (1 copy per participant):
Reward students with raffle tickets to keep them engaged. Finishing a tutorial or challenge on paper should equal a raffle ticket. Perform a raffle throughout the hour and give away lots of cheap prizes (candy is always a nice choice).
5) (optional) Music
Bring more energy in the room by playing music.
## Timeline
* ``00:00`` student sign in using **printed passwords** (see step 3)
After your Hour Of Code™, you will want to provide plenty of material for students to continue learning about coding. Here are some good places to start:
* [more challenges](/lessonss) are available for @boardname@
* [the Quick Start Guide for Teachers](http://www.slideshare.net/Microsofteduk/bbc-microbit-guide-from-hodder-education) are available within @boardname@
_The Hour of Code™ is a nationwide initiative by [Computer Science Education Week](http://csedweek.org) and [Code.org](http://code.org) to introduce millions of students to one hour of computer science and computer programming._
