Computing Task 16th September - Online Safety

I have also included some work in the computing file below related to online safety. All Years 5 and 6 have been discussing this topic and Year 6 children have been collating a guide on how to stay safe on social media.

Please find a link below to a weekly Coding Rock Band Project challenge. A game coding project.

Parents

There is no expectation for the children to complete this activity at all. I know we have some budding web designers and game coders in our class so I thought it would be nice to give them the option to learn how to code a game in their spare time.
