It's me! #CodeRead @SLIC1991 So excited to have been given the opportunity to talk about two of my favourite things - fiction and computing.
π¨Excited about combining coding and literacy in the classroom?
@StNiniansLib Code Reads β explore how reading, pixel art creation, and more can bring literacy and coding together in fun, creative ways!

Some absolutely fantastic work coming from our #CodeRead pupils - who, having read their books, are fully into designing their games. @StNiniansComp @alastair_ch @NosyCrow @Usborne #TamsinWinter

S1 have been busy reading their #coderead books looking for inspiration for their computer games. Today we started brainstorming potential ideas whilst developing our coding skills - all coming together nicely! @stninianshigh @StNiniansLib @DigiSchoolsERC @stacshq @flackboy

Our #CodeRead project encouraging pupils to read fiction and create computer games based on the characters and themes is well underway. 3 pupils are on to their third book after only two weeks- I am blown away by their commitment! @StNiniansComp

S1 are doing an amazing job reading their #coderead books and thinking about how these could form ideas for their computer games. Today they focused on main characters and created some pixel art of how they might look on screen. @stninianshigh @StNiniansLib @stacshq

Our collaborative project with @StNiniansComp just gets better and better. Many pupils have finished their first book (in one week!!) and have started to work on how they will turn it into a playable game. I am so impressed by all involved. #CodeRead #SLIF @SLIC1991

It was great to be able to launch our #CodeRead project during #CyberScotlandWeek2025 where S1 pupils choose fantastic fiction with digital themes and then create their own computer games based on their books. All thanks to @SLIC1991 @scotgov and supported by @StNiniansComp

A great start to #codeRead today with S1 pupils spending the beginning of the period reading books with a technology theme. They will then use their books to come up with a creative computer game. Canβt wait to see what they come up with! @stninianshigh @StNiniansLib @stacshq

Absolutely LOVED π€© #OrionLost by @alastair_ch and what happens when only the teenagers wake up during a long distance space voyage. Plenty of action, twists and disasters to keep you reading. It's not 'Lord of the Flies' in space, it is soooo much better!
