Today in computing, the children created a sequence of instructions (an algorithm) to draw a shape of a numeral e.g. 3. Firstly, we discussed what an algorithm is (an instruction / set of rules) for performing a task. The children created the algorithms in pairs or small groups using the Bee-bots to navigate their route, tracing the shape of the numeral. The children successfully worked out the algorithms for the numbers: 0, 1, 7, 5, 2 and 6.
