Computing
First attempts at animation
We have been learning about frames and onion skinning this week. Watch our first tries below.
Digital Art
We enjoyed creating paintings on the iPads, learning about which tools to use to erase, paint and save. We drew self portraits and then drew our friends.
Designing mats and algorithms
In Computing, we have enjoyed designing and creating mats for the Beebots and then planning and testing out algorithms. We identified the starting and finishing points of the route we wanted the Beebots to take and we were able to fix errors by debugging when necessary.
How can I programme repeated patterns?
In year 4, we have been using the Logo programming language to write programmes on Turtle Academy to make repeating patterns. We planned, created and evaluated our own designs for a wrapping paper pattern.
Repeated pattern designs
In computing we have been using Turtle Academy to program repeated patterns. We have been using count controlled loops. We have called on procedures to simplify our programs and have debugged our designs to make them look better.
