Lesson details
Key learning points
- In this lesson, we will focus on interpreting and creating flowcharts. We will use our knowledge of writing simple sequences and subroutines to follow a flowchart, and write the code that it represents. We will be given time to write our own simple flowcharts in order to practise using the symbols that we have learnt during the lesson. This is an introduction to flowchart design and will be built upon throughout the unit.
