During the last half term Year 2 have been learning about robot algorithms as part of programming. In this unit they developed their’ understanding of giving instructions in sequences and the use of logical reasoning to predict outcomes. They used commands in different orders to investigate how the order affected the outcome. They also learnt about design in programming and developed artwork and tested it for use in a program. The children then designed algorithms and tested those algorithms as programs and debugged them to iron out any mistakes. It was great fun and they learnt so much! This will be important learning for them to build on higher up the school.
