Now that my time in schools is over, its time to consider what next with Scratch. Both my schools are now wanting to use Scratch in school which is great news. While some of the kids have downloaded it at home. So it looks like im still going to be helping out at the schools for a while yet, which is great I have really enjoyed being in the schools and the kids were brilliant to work with(as were the teachers). When I spoke to the classes for my last visit the only complaint from every child was that they did not have enough time with Scratch and that they had to work in pairs(again more to do with time on Scratch). I was really pleased that they enjoyed it so much and didnt expect the response that it had got, especially with both schools going to keep Scratch. I'll be working closely with the teachers to help their work with scratch and see what we can do in the class with it.
Im now in the process of finishing writing up my project report,which is due in soon hence the short blog. Better get back to work!!!!!
