Year 5 Computer Science Workshop
Miss Fenson sent this report:
On Tuesday 11 May, 17 Year 5 students joined a virtual Computer Science workshop. The aim of the session was to create an animation in Scratch and include a variety of different features. Initially we started by implementing the visual aspects of the program, including the ‘looks’ and ‘motion’ blocks. We then developed this further to include user interactivity by implementing the ask ‘sensing’ block and some ‘control’ loop blocks. The final challenge was to incorporate the ‘sound’ blocks and the additional extra of including a second sprite.
The girls did a fantastic job and I was very impressed with their coding abilities. We had a wide range of animations created, ranging from stories, to games, to animated dances from different animals. It was lovely to see so many creative ideas coming together. Well done girls!
