We are becoming very good at coding now….Good enough to get a certificate!
We have spent a few hours over this last EU Code Week learning the basics of coding.
We love Kodables, Angry Birds, Ice Age, Moana, Star Wars and Minecraft!
We don’t even need help from teacher anymore!
We are celebrating EU Code Week this week by trying out some coding each day.
We are inviting another class to join us at each session.
We find some really good coding programmes to help us at our level from:
Our coding for today was with the programme Kodable.
This programme is really easy and we had a lot of fun getting our little furry guy out of the maze each time.
We also did some coding from The Hour of Code with Angry Birds.
We are really getting the hang of coding.
Why not try this at home?
Here’s how we got on for EU Code Week:
Ms. McLoughlin’s 2nd and Ms. Cunningham’s 2nd classes played Kodable and Angry Birds.
Ms. McLoughlin’s 2nd and Mr. Lane’s 1st classes played Minecraft
This week we’ve been learning about space. Have a look at some of our 2D shape rockets
We also built some rockets using Lego, straws, blocks and magnets.
We are learning to code. We use Bee Bots to practise going forwards and backwards and turning left and right. We have 6 Bee Bots, 2 computers, one whiteboard, 6 mats and a maze all so we can have Bee Bot challenges.
Today we all had turns at everything.
We are getting good at coding.

We are back!!
This year Ms. Dunne and Mrs. Greally are the Lego club teachers. Ms. Groarke is on maternity leave.
This week we had lots of beginners from first class. We tried to write our names in Lego.
Check it out!
