How good are these?
Today in our Y2 computing elective, we progressed our exploration of @scratch. With the use of the fantastic @makeymakey boards, we created musical instruments. I love the drum sticks. @JaninePavlisDT & @sannah71 you’ll be proud!

Thank you so much for having me!
In the episode, I take the time to discuss creativity across the curriculum but also it’s place within #computing. Also, how Computational Thinking and @mres work can provide a framework for creative thinking.
