There are a range of tools I expect my class will work with including:

3D Design: **TinkerCAD** Programming: **Scratch** ||< This is the first year of a three-year Computing course designed to give our students an idea of the range of skills and experiences they would develop if they opt to study Computer Science in our Senior High School.


 * In Term 1**, we look at the range of tools available for communication and modelling. I usually try to use the topic we negotiate as the context for any practical work we do, in order to create resources that may help provide content for the website. We will be taking part in EU Code Week (October 7-22) and would be happy to collaborate with US-based colleagues participating in the Hour of Code in December.


 * In Term 2**, we work on using the Internet to communicate - participating in producing a site for GVC will be an integral part of this. ||
