Coding Buttons

Computing in Year Two was hard today, we had to show our 'Reggie: The Resilient Tortoise" learning powers to be successful. 


Our aim was to understand the function of 'buttons' in a program.

We began by understanding what we meant by the term 'button' -


Next, we explored how to add our own buttons in the 'Design View' -



Finally, we explored how to code our buttons -


This was a lot to remember and as a group we had mixed success. 

Next week, we will pick this up again and revise our understanding of coding buttons.

In the plenary of our lesson, Mr Spracklen showed us what the code in a game can look like when it is finished -



To explore this code and to play the game (Year Two were very keen to do this and I did promise I would post this link on the blog), please visit -
