The Computing curriculum at Denbigh aims to equip our children with a foundation of skills, knowledge and understanding of computing that they will need for the rest of their lives. Through a variety of learning experiences from both Teachers and experts from the Computing field, they learn how computers and computer systems work, they design and build programs and machines, develop their ideas using technology and create a range of content. Through this the children develop a knowledge of computing language and how this impacts on Society equipping them with the tools to be good digital citizens.
Last Friday, Mr Brown came into giraffe class to work on their ‘Computational Thinking’. The day began with an alien asking us to work together to crack lots of codes send them back to complete the mission. Of course they managed to do it with some fantastic debugging, problem solving, collaboration and creativity skills! #dcpsgiraffe #dcpscomputing #dcpsICT #dcpscore
Year 5 Dolphins completed their Computing unit ‘What Makes a Computer?’ yesterday. We learned all about the different components within a computer and their different jobs. We are now also experts at using binary code. We even had a go at creating our own bitmap images using pixels which we then translated into binary code. #dcpsdolphin #dcpscomputing #dcpscore #dcpsict4learning
