Thank you to Belinda for visiting us and teaching us a valuable lesson in Computing. Belinda is an educational computing consultant and we are very lucky to have her as our Lead Curriculum Advisor for Computing at St Vincent’s!

Today we used a programming language called ‘Logo’ to design, write and debug a program in order to design simple shapes. We did this by using sequence, selection, and repetition; working with variables and various forms of input and output.

We had to use logical reasoning to explain how this simple algorithm works and to solve problems by decomposing them into smaller parts.

Please have a look at the shapes we created…
