Sandymoor Week 1

Class 2 were very excited to travel to Sandymoor for their Computing Lessons. We are developing our knowledge of Scratch. This week we added sprites (objects/people) and made them move. We also designed our own sprites or picked one from the gallery available on Scratch. It was great fun and we can't wait for next week.
