A while back I blogged about my Lego QR Code here.
The QR code has very much, up until today, remained at the side of my classroom(s) kind of propped up against something as I never found a reliable way to put it up on display. I once tried to blue tack the Lego board/code to the wall, but inevitably it fell off and I had to create the code all over again from the scattered pieces of Lego!
Earlier this year I discovered Nimuno Loops! I saw a Twitter/Facebook post advertising their 'Lego tape' and decided to 'back' them. My Nimuno Loops tapes got delivered earlier this month and so it was time to redesign my Lego QR Code...
The tape is the perfect solution to me not being able to previously put my QR Code on display.
The strips of 'Lego tape' stick perfectly to the classroom wall and can even be peeled off and reused.
I cut the strips into the length required and then laid them out below one another, ensuring there weren't any gaps and that they were lined up.
I then, with a slight air of caution, started placing the Lego pieces onto the strips to recreate the code from the original I made a few years ago.
The strips come in all sorts of different colours and sizes, I used a combination of my blue and green strips here.
Once completed, the QR Code looks just as it did previously on the traditional Lego board, just without the border.
The pieces stay firmly in place and are now proudly on display above my whiteboard, as you can see below.
The best thing about it...it still scans like it did, like a regular QR Code and will take students to my YouTube Channel where I keep all my videos for them to use when revising.
I'm very impressed with the results of using my new Nimuno Loops. I even have a few rolls spare to use at home to display my Lego Minifigures I've been collecting too!!
