Computing - Moon Landing Coding Adventure
Computing - Moon Landing Coding Adventure
The children watched a show with Professor Trice where she introduced the children to AL the robot. She used an algorithm to help AL to safely board a Saturn V rocket for the moon!
The children learnt about practical coding skills, as they designed, wrote and tested different algorithms to guide AL the robot on her mission to collect moon rocks to take back to earth. If they didn't work the children debugged their algorithm. They worked in teams to achieve this.
