Text-based programming lesson 3

Text-based programming lesson 3


This lesson builds on the work you did with loops, to create an animation.

Objectives and Outcomes:

  • be able to explain what repetition is (band 4)
  • apply your understanding to create a program that uses repetition (band 5)
  • link what you have learned and done today to previous lessons where you have used repetition (band 6)

You will draw a large dot and then overlap it with a white one and loop between the two so it appears as though the blue dot is switching on and off.

Link to the program to do this is below:


See the link below for screenshots of the programming:

Your tasks
1.  Use my screenshots to help you create your own program of "flashing" spot.

2.  Take a screenshot of your completed and working program and copy/paste it to a Google doc.

3.  Repeat instructions 1 and 2 for the second screenshot of programming.

4.  Edit your program to change the colour and size of your spot.

5.  Take a screenshot of your completed and working program and copy/paste it to a Google doc.

6.  Share your doc correctly - to Anyone with the Link and copy/paste the link to a new blog post, titled the same as mine.

7.  Under your link, explain why loops and repetition are useful in programming.

8.  Log into scratch online (scratch.mit.edu) and create a program that uses loops and repetition.

9.  Take a screenshot and paste it under your python ones for this lesson.

10.  Under the Scratch screenshot, explain what the program does.
