Previously you've used Scratch to create a program and this involved selecting programming "block" and joining them up in the right order like a jigsaw to make your program run as you wanted.
Python is a programming language where you type in the commands to get the program to do what you want. It's called text-based programming and is the next stage up from Scratch; you are writing the sort of programming that is going on "behind the scenes" of the Scratch programming blocks.
Objectives and Outcomes
- be able to describe what Python is (band 3)
- be able to explain how Python works (band 4)
- be able to apply your understanding to program inputs and output and store them in variables (band 5)
- be able to link this work to programming you have done in previous units (band 6)
Here is a link to my slideshow with info and tasks.....
