Direct Instruction
The learning intention for this lesson was to become familiar with the software 'Scratch'. In particular to become confident at using the drawing tools within Scratch.
This helps the students to move away from the templates and clip-art within scratch, and ultimately become more creative.

Direct Instruction
The learning intention for this lesson was for learners write a set of instructions to program the Bee Bot. The lesson incorporated Digital technologies with our Inquiry Focus ‘Telling stories through Dance and Drama. A grid, pictures, images and the Bee Bots (supplied by OMG Tech) were used as a resource, to tell the story of “The Three Little Pigs.” The video shows a guided lesson starting with a group of 6 children and them moves into a whole class lesson. Students use their decomposition skills to break down simple non-computerised tasks into precise step-by-step instructions (algorithmic thinking). They give these instructions, identify any errors in them as they are followed, and correct them (simple debugging).
