In this unit pupils will create text-based programs which use repetition. They will plan, modify, and test commands to create shapes and patterns. They will explore the different types of loops that can be used to repeat commands in a program.

Repetition in programs

In this unit, pupils will consider how and why data is collected. They will explore how sensors monitor the environment. Pupils will collect data as well as access data captured over long periods. They will look at data points, data sets, logging intervals and use a computer to analyse data.

Data logging

In this unit pupils will develop their understanding of how digital images can be changed and edited, and how they can then be resaved and reused. They will consider the impact that editing images can have, and evaluate the effectiveness of their choices.

Photo editing

In this unit, pupils will explore the concept of repetition in programming in the Scratch environment. Pupils will look at the difference between count-controlled and infinite loops. They will use their knowledge to modify, design and create games and animations that involve repetition.
