I really enjoyed learning about the health of Scotland, using the national health website. It turns out we’re not very healthy, but it was really interesting to find similarities between different sections.
We used these cute line art images to find and practice angles, like Right Angles, Acute, Obtuse and Reflex. They came out really cute, although I wish I did a penguin as it’s more symmetrical.
I used block-code to write an algorithm for a microbit today. I had to think about the order of the instructions, and used code like ‘if button a is pressed. .. then …’
It didn’t work properly at first, and kept singing a loud song, but I realised I hadn’t downloaded my code onto the microbit. This was a bit tricky but I worked it out in the end.
I found it fascinating, and also a little bit scary, learning about my digital footprint. I realised I have quite a lot of information online already, and it is scary to think what that information tells the world about me. I’ll be more careful now about what I post, and I’ll think about if I might think it’s embarrassing in the future.
