The end and new beginnings

In our final session before half term everyone worked to complete and enhance their favourite games so far. We saw lots of very different games produced and some great teamwork from people who finished first.

We’ve produced lots of animations and games over the last few weeks but it was lovely to have an end of term showcase where everyone submitted their favourite finished project. You can see some of the games in our Scratch studio https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/1883020/projects

So, what’s next? We’re moving on from Scratch for a while as we’re excited to welcome a group of very cute looking BBC Micro:bits. (no fighting over the green one!)

The BBC Micro:bits are awesome little devices which will enable us to make a broad range of projects. We’ll start with the Code Club projects using the Code Kingdoms editor and see where it takes us, these little guys have not been widely dispatched yet so we’re definitely guinea pigs but I’m sure everyone will enjoy the challenge. You can find out more about the BBC Micro:bit here https://www.microbit.co.uk and bonus points for anyone who can find out about the BBC Micro (clue : it was big in the 1980s!)
