Year 3
Maths- Measurement & Geometry
Create and interpret simple grid maps to show position and pathways
Digital technologies
Explore a range of digital systems with peripheral devices for different purposes, and transmit different types of data
Develop simple solutions as visual programs

Lesson 1
Introduction to visual programming- unplugged
Students to work in groups of 2 to draw a map on grid paper with obstacles. Students to use the scratch coding flash cards attached to decide how best to navigate through the map without hitting obstacles.

Lesson 2
Introduction to sphero and lightning lab
Students view https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TY14f_Q0zxw
Students to work in groups of 5 to have sandpit time learning how to move the sphero in drive mode and using code

Once students are able to use the sphero challenges will be set up sat as:
tracing a square (drawn on carpet with chalk or masking tape).
programming the sphero to go from a- b
programming the sphero to travel around the classroom without hitting any furniture

Lesson 3
