On Friday Year 2 enjoyed a trip to the OpenZone @ The Word. The children began by using the laptops to follow step by step instructions to build lego models. They then got to programme their models to rotate, make sounds and move with a motion sensor.

In the afternoon the children used Purplemash to create their own pairs games. They inputted images, drew their own card designs and were eager to add text to their games. To end the day they enjoyed trying out each other’s pair games. Their games can be played following the link below.
