    Superb online branching database creators

    13 May 2026 (by admin)

    This week, in Computing, Voyagers and Discoverers developed their computing skills by creating an online branching database.

    We were really impressed with how considerate the children explored the definite attributes of objects and used yes/no questions to sort and classify information digitally. They thought carefully about their questions and persevered to resolve any errors. Great group and paired learning all around. 

    Throughout the learning, the children used important computational thinking skills including decomposition, tinkering, debugging and collaboration. They tested ideas, corrected mistakes, and worked together to create effective classification systems. This linked to their science learning on classifying animals, where they applied their knowledge of animal groups and characteristics.
