Lego meets Computing
Class 6 have been getting creative with Lego, combining their love of building with some exciting computing and programming challenges.
Using specialist LEGO kits, the young people were able to construct their own working models, incorporating motors and electronic components.
But the fun didn't stop at building! Once their models were assembled, they used programming software on the laptops to write instructions and control how their creations behaved.
Through this hands-on activity, the young people explored important computing concepts, including sequencing, logical thinking, problem-solving and debugging. They had to think carefully about the instructions, test their programmes and make adjustments when things didn't quite work as expected.
It was wonderful to see the creativity, collaboration and determination on display as they experimented, learned from mistakes and brought their models to life.
