Yesterday we were programming on computers with the sparkles.
It was the best lesson we’ve had so far! Some of us made a haunted house, some of us made a merry go round or a carousel. (They did really well! Much better than our haunted house. I must say one of the groups did a scary hunted house – with a jump scare.)
It was a bit funny that we could not figure out which cable was causing the confusion with the sparkles to turn on. It took us ages to find out which one it was! We found out it was the last one. Phew.When we found it out we told Mr. Williams and he said, “Well done, now you have a choice to make: either make the box into the buggy and you program it or carry on improving your work.” Everyone voted to build and program the buggy. It was fun, much more fun than it sounded! We tried to program it but it spun around and around. The second time it worked.
