Y4 Coding

Our budding coding experts from Year 4 came to visit Mr Drakes this week and show off the games they have been designing. Using the Espresso Coding Suite, the children have built their own games. In each of the ones shown, the code had created a maze where you had to navigate obstacles and collect rewards.

Reciprocity
It was great having a partner to work with. If I didn't know which bit of code to use, Lucy could help me to complete it. By working together we managed to create a real game!

Resilience
When we saw the model game, it looked so complicated. We were shown how to break it down into little chunks and that made it easier. By the end I had got the hang of it and could code much more quickly.
