We used Scratch Jnr during our DigiTec lessons in term one. Students were expected to write a code that went across two screens that matched so they could create a story. They were also required to do an if then, for example when the soccer ball hit the butterfly in the park it would flutter around. These movements were to be as realistic as possible. Students were encouraged to use loops and sound effects for their characters.
I don't have access to these apps on my computer to show their codes.]]> 2016-08-29 12:15:54 UTC https://padlet.com/j_zagami/nlytmzvzjx05/wish/120275054 Prep https://padlet.com/j_zagami/nlytmzvzjx05/wish/120431283 we used hour of Code and crayon physics delux during rotations]]> 2016-08-29 21:12:36 UTC https://padlet.com/j_zagami/nlytmzvzjx05/wish/120431283 We have used Scratch, with a pre-designed background, and have the students move a character round a maze https://padlet.com/j_zagami/nlytmzvzjx05/wish/120465046 2016-08-30 02:44:07 UTC https://padlet.com/j_zagami/nlytmzvzjx05/wish/120465046 Scratch Jn is on the XOs and students were to design two screens with a character moving to the other screen. https://padlet.com/j_zagami/nlytmzvzjx05/wish/120516928 2016-08-30 11:14:13 UTC https://padlet.com/j_zagami/nlytmzvzjx05/wish/120516928 Kindy - Use Bee Bot app to move Bee Bot to the flower.  Supports and reinforces "hands on" Bee Bot. https://padlet.com/j_zagami/nlytmzvzjx05/wish/120720428 2016-08-31 00:22:47 UTC https://padlet.com/j_zagami/nlytmzvzjx05/wish/120720428 Beebots - Prep https://padlet.com/j_zagami/nlytmzvzjx05/wish/120742571 We used the iPad app and actual Beebots to solve simple problems.  How to move Beebot from one place to another - increasing difficulty level of the task as success is achieved.
