Scratch
I came across the excellent Scratch programming tool via an interesting discussion on Classroom2.0.
I’m planning on investigating it a little more in the near future, there are a wealth of mathematical possibilities for it from algebra, logic, geometry, probability etc etc etc. However I’ve been thinking of a quick way in to it for my pupils, and Simon Mills work he has been doing with Logo got me thinking, why not use Scratch to emulate logo? Below is a quick copy of the work Simon started on Logo, but using Scratch.
More to come on this when I have the time!
Thanks Daniel Another colleague mentioned scratch a while ago, but I haven’t had time to check it out. Can’t wait to see what you do with it and how it works. Glad someone is reading my LOGO posts, I was worried that they might be a bit heavy or out dated. LOGO like control and modeling itself is not everyone’s cup of tea. Thanks for dropping by and leaving a comment. Look forward to hearing from you soon.
