Year 6 Computing

Programming in Scratch


This term Year 6 have been learning all about variables in programming, using Scratch, and have already practised creating variables in simple games and projects. Next week, they will be applying their skills to debugging and improving a jailbreak game, created by Bannockburn's computing lead, Mr. Baxter. The game involves collecting keys to escape jail, while avoiding the guards. Both the finished game and a broken version of the game have been made available to the children within their Scratch classroom, and they will be attempting to debug it by finding the mistakes with the variables. They will also have a series of challenges to complete, such as adding extra food and guards.
