This week, we introduced the concept of memory in redstone and explored how circuits can store and recall information. We started with an SR latch, a simple memory circuit that can store a value based on inputs. Students discovered how we can “set” and “reset” data, creating a ba...

Today, students explored the core components of redstone, including dust, repeaters, comparators, and torches. I was impressed to see that everyone already had a strong understanding of these elements. We built on this knowledge by discussing how glass towers affect redstone move...

Last week, students explored redstone screens and how to efficiently control pixels. Initially, they considered 1x1 pixels but quickly saw that wiring becomes too complex at scale. Instead, they used 2x2 pixel screens, which are much easier to wire and expand.

To control these s...

In our second lesson of the week, we explored how binary addition works in redstone by constructing a half adder. We began by examining the truth table for a half adder and discovered that it can be built using two simple logic gates: AND and XOR. Through this process, students s...

This week, we wrapped up our exploration of binary addition by building a full adder. Using what we learned from half adders, we combined multiple full adders to create an 8-bit adder—capable of adding numbers up to 255! This was a great way to see how small, simple circuits can ...
