Hi Armstrong

This term we will all be looking at a fantastic website https://code.org/ it will teach you how to use code in a fun way. If anyone has used scratch before it is similar but you can do much more and earn a certificate to prove it!

You can log on from home and work your way thought the course that includes flappy birds and Minecraft.

I can help you if you have any problems.

Our log on code for Armstrong is PPNXLM. Find your name on our page and enter your two secret words. Let me know if you have forgotten them. There will be tokens available for each completed unit. Enjoy!
