Courses Description
Head of Pathway: Ms R. Eveleigh.
You will program the computer to make simple to ‘crazy beautiful’ patterns on the screen using the coding language of Python.
You will actually write your own code and be able to generate animated designs and if you advance to the end of Way of the Turtle, you will be able to create very small apps using Python coding.
Throughout the module you will be testing your numeracy skills as well and your designs will be used as content for Literacy assignments.
This Module is about basic programming and you do not need any prior experience.
