The best laid plans

New term of Code Club checklist …..

1) Anticipation – moving on to not 1 but 2 new languages

2) Preparation – Python installed, Code Kingdoms user names set up

3) Backup – If Python hasn’t been installed correctly we’ll do Code Kingdoms

4) Backup backup – If Code Kingdoms can’t open we’ll go back to Scratch

Everything was good to go….except the laptops which again failed us. No Python, no internet, no Scratch backup 😦 so we’ve been delayed for a week. Looking at it from a positive view we at least now have a set of lovely colourful Code Club posters to put up.

Away from our Code Club sessions a couple of our members signed on at home and created some lovely football related Scratch Animations ahead of the World Scratch Day event at the National Football Museum in Manchester. Thanks to Hadi & Kayla for their hard work, I’m looking forward to seeing the animations on show at the museum. Check out their creations for yourself here https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/1112522 and of course feel free to add your own too.
