RE and Computing - Programming Sphero for our GS Mardi Gras (Building the Kingdom Session 5)

In our iDeliver Computing lesson, we programmed Sphero to pull our cam parade floats for the GS Mardi Gras, which we built in DT. It was a real challenge! The floats were heavy, so we had to test, debug, and adjust factors like speed and pulling force. We kept trying, never giving up, and showed great teamwork and perseverance. It was a fun and hands-on way to learn about problem-solving and subsidiarity!

iMove and iRoll

In our computing lessons, we worked with Sphero robots to build and test programs. First, we created a program to navigate Sphero through a maze, learning new programming terminology along the way. It was exciting to see our program work successfully! We also tested how far Sphero could travel in 1 second and used this data to calculate the time needed for Sphero to reach a target at different speeds. It was a challenging and fun way to apply our programming skills!

RE and Computing - David the Shepherd King

In this lesson, we learned about King David and combined our computing skills from iDraw to create a digital image of him. Using Sketchpad and shapes, we designed King David with meaningful symbols and added our favourite verse from Psalm 23 around the image. It was a creative way to bring the story of King David to life!
