Solving problems with STEAM PUNKS
This week year 6/5 boys were put to the test to solve the problem of how to successfully power a LEGO car. Students used Innobits to create a circuit, which then drove their creation. The boys also created a basic warning system using a slider module and a LED module. Well done boys!

Scratch Jr: Be Safe
Students in 2C decided to code a story about being safe, one of ICSS’s school rules.
Firstly, they used Popplet, a mindmapping app, to brainstorm ideas about the story line, characters, setting and scenes.
After finalising their ideas, they created each scene in Scratch Jr
One of the students from 2C then presented a combined version of their movie at assembly. Students had lots of fun developing their Digital Technology skills this term.
