Programmable Robot Travels Around the Town!
We helped ‘Dizzy Tron’ to travel around the town today. We chose buildings for him to visit and then told him how to get there.
Dizzy Tron is a programmable robot and the children have to give him instructions on how to move. This helps develop early coding and programming skills. The children also learned all about the places in the town. We’ll post some videos soon!
Newbridge: Please help us gather photographs!
For the next 2 weeks the children who come to me will be talking about Newbridge and the area in which the children live. We have been looking at photographs of buildings, shops and places in Newbridge: Whitewater, the playground, the cinema, Tesco, the pharmacy, the petrol station, the hairdressers and so on…. Please talk to your child about the places and buildings you see when on the way to school or at the weekend. We would love some more photos of Newbridge so please take photographs with your child and email to me at bairbre.elwood@scmj.ie. Photographs from all children and parents are welcome! We will post our photos of Newbridge on the website soon!
