Year 3 Computing: Lego WeDo

'Drumming Monkeys go bananas for Lego We Do' 

In our Computing and DT learning, we have been learning about programming and creating algorithms (a sequence of instructions).  We had an excellent time building and programming our drumming monkeys. We used the iPads to the scan QR codes to access the instructions. This helped us to access the instructions to build our Lego Drumming Monkey models. 






The children then tested their models using the Lego Creations program, which allows the children to program their Lego characters to move! Watch the video below to see how it works!

When evaluating and reviewing their project work. We had this to say...



3 Beech children have written this blog. 
“It was amazing because the Lego moved.”
“It was magnificent to see everybody’s Lego work, also seeing my model move too!”
“It was wonderful when we saw the monkey drumming, it made lots of interesting sounds.”
“It was a beautiful sight to see when all the monkeys worked at the end of our lessons, I was really proud!”
