STEP 2: TECHNOLOGY

Introduction to Coding & Working with "Botley" the Robot.

The children have been having lots of fun learning to code.
Micro;bit
Micro;bit is a codable mini processor that uses a range of accessible coding languages. This mini processor has 25 LED lights that you can program to display a range of icons, text and information. Over lockdown, we used 'Micro;Bit Classroom'. This software allows the teacher to view everyone's work and send out blocks and tasks. We had a lot of fun using block coding to instruct microbit to say our names and measure the temperature in different places in Ireland. ​

SAFER INTERNET WEEK

The whole school celebrated "Safer Internet Day" on the 9th of February.  During that week, all children received lessons from the "Webwise" resource.  When Junior Infants to Second came back to school, they were given their "Internet Safety" wristbands.
