Year 4 @carletonhouse looked at repeat loops this week. They tried some of the trickier levels on Star Wars hour of code. Some of the levels really made them think. @codeorg @MGLWorldNews

Year 5 @carletonhouse started looking at variables in @scratch. They designed their own game where a player would lose a life if they touched the other character. @MGLWorldNews

Year 3 @carletonhouse created their own band in @scratch. They added sprites and sound blocks together to make different types of music. @MGLWorldNews

Year 6 @carletonhouse used the input function in Python today to draw shapes with a given number of sides. @MGLWorldNews @EduBlocks

Year 3 and 4 @carletonhouse house have been introduced to @scratch today. Year 3 looked at how to change costumes on the characters while year 4 looked at loops!

Year 6 @carletonhouse looked at conditional formatting in #excel. They used a pre-made template today but will create their own in next week's lesson! @MGLWorldNews

Another fantastic week of coding from Ks1 computing club @carletonhouse. They loved working their way through the different stages of @CodeMonkeySTU . @MGLWorldNews

In today's lesson @carletonhouse, the year 3's looked at what we mean by phishing. We talked about different ways in which people can try and steal our personal information. They tried spotting scam emails before finishing with a game of 'Band Runner'. @MGLWorldNews

Year 4's @carletonhouse were introduced to branching databases this week. They used #jit5 to sort some information using questions that required a yes or no answer. @just2easy_com

Year 5 @carletonhouse looked at databases this week and how they are structured. Top trumps are a great example of a database structure so they children enjoyed making their own Top Trumps cards.

Last session with year 5's @carletonhouse. Today, they used @SketchUpUK to design their own lego blocks. We used the copy and paste functions to ensure that all the studs were exactly the same size. #lego #CAD

Lovely being back @carletonhouse these last few weeks. The year 5's used the Crumbles to make their own set of traffic lights. We first discussed the sequence of the lights before we coded the first few steps. Children then went onto complete the code!

Year 4's @carletonhouse were asked the question today - 'What is the Internet?' We then used PowerPoint to construct a diagram to show how the computers are joined together and how information is passed along in small packets.
