STEM Group 10/6/2023 Write up
So today we carried on with the Code Club python track and we are making good progress with this. I spent some time working with two new attendees who I started off with Scratch, so logged in with the code club accounts so projects could be saved.
We mostly were just exploring and experimenting with Scratch and trying a few things out. All being well,. they will be at code club next week.
Towards the end of the morning session, I spent some time chatting about a potential visit to a school and talk to year 5 classes about code club and what we are learning.
While the STEM event runs till 3 not everyone can stay. As a result by about 12:15 most people had gone, so I tidied up.
I then spent some time with one of the library young volunteers, testing one of the Raspberry Pi's, minetest, ironed out a few issues, then we had a go with Python, writing some small simple programs but this went really well, extended invite to code club so we can carry on working with Python.
So next week will be more Scratch and Python and perhaps some Raspberry Pi pico and hour of code activities, depending on who makes it.
