* Computing *

This afternoon both Y1 classes were controlling a Beebot and instructing it to move. They used the real Beebots but also used the free app on the iPads to challenge themselves. They were definitely having to use their ‘logical reasoning’ to work out how to move the Beebot but also debug their code if they got it wrong! Lots of brainache this afternoon!

* Learning to Type *

The first skill of learning how to type is by locating the keys on the keyboard. Both classes this afternoon were using Purple Mash ‘2Type’ to practise where to find the keys. Each time they got it right they scored a point, when they get it wrong they lose a point. Have a go at home on a laptop or computer, their login details are on the inside of their reading records.
