Scratch Coding

,

In Year 6 we have been exploring coding on Scratch to create Viking themed games. In our games we have coded sprites to catch falling objects to gain points. Points are also deducted if certain objects touch. We have learned how to create a timer and a score board.

We are looking forward to playing each others finished games next week.

Heart pumps and blood soup

, , , , , ,

Today we have found out about the four chambers of the heart and we worked together to make a valve to stop the blood from going in the wrong direction, just like in a human heart.

We then learned the components of blood and make some blood soup. The jelly represented the red blood cells, the marshmallows were the white blood cells, the rice was the platelets and the orange juice was the plasma.

What a fun, interactive afternoon.
