Programming a micro:bit with help from Sky!

As part of National Digital Learning Week, today Shona and Craig from Sky joined Primary 4 and 5 to share their knowledge of programming a micro:bit.

A micro:bit is a tiny programmable computer, designed to make learning and teaching easy and fun! Some of us even managed to programme it to say our names.

A big thank you to Shona and Craig for showing us this new piece of hardware, we were impressed how we used our prior knowledge of programming in order to use the micro:bit.

They also shared with children information about their jobs at Sky and what skills and experience they need.

 

 

Digital Learning Week Lunch Time Clubs

As part of National Digital Learning Week staff offered some lunchtime clubs.

P1-3 had the option to attend an apps club. They had a tinker with the different apps we have available and a play with the green screen.

 

P4-7 could attend a Glow workshop. They decided they would have a play with forms and make an online quiz, or Sway and make a presentation about something they were interested in. Both groups tinkered with the software and supported each other with using the different features.
