Having fun tinkering on the bee bot website on the iPads this afternoon. We have been exploring positional language and enjoyed moving the bee bots to different shapes and letters 🐝 #pdacomputing
Some fabulous work on the water cycle today, with some cross-curricular with #pdascience and #pdageography. We did a chalk picture of the water cycle, then uploaded it on to Freeform to label and annotate #pdaart#pdacomputing
Sooooo much tinkering, de-bugging and collaborating in #pdacomputing, as part of our patterns, selections and sequences unit. We had loads of fun changing our sprite, moving it around a board and making it say certain things as it moved around!
As part of our Online Safety lessons in Computing, we have been learning how to maintain a positive online reputation and discussing the types of information that we wouldn’t share online - on a game or any other website, or app! #pdacomputing
In #pdacomputing we have been looking at events and actions. We worked carefully to create our own algorithms for the computer to follow. We even managed to add sound effects to our work.
Some amazing digital art in progress here, using Freeform to create self-portraits. We’re thinking about tone, pen strokes and accuracy whilst using our Apple pencils. Can’t wait to see some finished ones! #pdaart#pdacomputing
We have explored different devices and how they work to film and edit video. We are excited to use the iPads to create and edit our own projects! #pdacomputing
We enjoyed creating thaumatropes, understanding the development of moving images over time to ‘video’ as we know it today. We looked at some of the making of Chicken Run, Wonka and Finding Nemo to see how different movies are made #pdacomputing
A great assembly for Internet Safety week! We thought about how the internet can be fun, and we were all fascinated when learning about ‘Artificial Intelligence’ and joining in an AI quiz. This week in class, we’re all thinking about how to stay safe when online. #pdacomputing
We were so lucky to have @Showbie with us today, all the way from Canada! Not only that, but we were given the opportunity to be like contestants on Dragon’s Den, and pitch our new feature ideas to them #pdacomputing
Brilliant to welcome members of the @Showbie team to @ParboldDouglas! They're visiting the UK from Canada and have found time to pop in and see us! 🤩
Fantastic to learn about the work 'behind the scenes' on an application that we all use so often at school!

Excellent word processing in Computing today from @PDA_Y1! Amazing to see so many of you using the shift key to type capital letters... 👏🙌
