Today our starter was quite confusing as John was not here. John sent an email to us all with the instructions. We had to make a program that adds up two numbers up to 20. It was quite confusing to do however when John finally got here, he showed us how to do it. I was close to getting however I couldn't get my head around writing the loop. After I saw how to do it, I understood it more. If I had to do a task like this in the future I could do it.
Also we carried on writing assignment one task one. We did this for just over an hour (until lunch) and I have got quite far with it. My goal is to finish the whole of task one over the weekend and I might start task two or three. I am pretty confident with task one and I should be able to finish it on the Saturday.
Another thing we did today was making a turtle alphabet. We were all given one letter each (the three leaders were given the left over letters) and we had to program it to write that letter. The letter I assigned was P. This was quite easy because all I had to do was draw a line down then make a semi circle at the top. This was a fun task because we got to practice our design skills and our programming skills. Here is the P I designed and I am happy with what I did with it.
Overall I have enjoyed this week of programming and I have learnt a lot. I never knew what Small Basic was at the start but now I am understanding it and getting more confident with it. I'm going to continue working on my Small Basic skills over the weekend.
