Once you have your components, assemble the parts onto a LEGO baseplate and use Maker Tape to connect the LEDs.

Once you've got your circuit built, and the code is loaded, you can test it out.

Power up your circuit using a USB cable plugged into the micro:bit or using a two AAA battery pack plugged into the Bit Board.
-
Clap your hands near the micro:bit and the LEDs should turn off!
-
But wait! The LEDs turn back on after a second, so get ready to clap again!
-
Keep clapping, my friend... Keep clapping.
