Coding in P.5
13th Oct 2021
The pupils have been working hard developing their coding skills on ‘Code and Go Mouse’, ‘Blue-Bot’ and ‘ProBot’. Coding involves creating instructions that tell a piece of technology how to operate in the right way.
In class this has meant measuring distance, knowing left and right 90 degree turns and a lot of trial and error! As pupils have grown in confidence they have simplified their code to include repeat brackets.
We’re hoping to have a visit from Sir Code-a-lot who needs our help to get robots out of mazes using one perfect program of code. We’ll send him our code and hopefully rescue his bots! 🤖
