Year Two Computing

This half term we have been programmers, we began our learning by creating algorithms and programming our friends to move from one part of a castle to another.  We used directional language like turn left, forwards, turn right and backward in our algorithms. 

 

We then explored our Pro-Bots which are programmable cars. We worked out how to operate them and had great fun experimenting with algorithms to get the Pro-Bots to the correct place on the mats. When our algorithms didn't work, we used our detective skills to debug the problem!

 

We completed our programming unit by using a website called Scratch. Scratch uses coding to program Sprites around the different backdrops, we even learnt how to create our own space themed backdrops.
