Some of the class had done coding before and a handful had not. I paired some of the students up so they could learn off each other and then worked with a small group who had no prior experience.
After I gave a small demonstration on the the projector screen the students were left to make their own creation. Will the purpose been - to produce a Mothers Day card using code. (We were using scratch)
The class did really well and I was really impressed with the ideas they came up with.
The only problem we found was sharing our codes- there was no email link so we had to cut and paste the link and send in email. Here are some examples below.
