Exemplar Materials
The answers to the formative quiz are all available at the end of this document. I have also included 8 example projects with my
original comments to the students. These can be found at: http://scratch.mit.edu/studios/528295/
Examples 1, 4 and 5 were typical of what students were producing. I was very impressed by example 6, because she was a child who
needed a lot of learning support and this was a real breakthrough for her. Example 2 showed quite an original game and he was also
an EAL child. Example 3 showed a huge amount of determination to make the game that they wanted to play and lot of tenacity to
make their code work. Examples 7 & 8 were better examples than I have seen in students studying for their GCSEs (15 & 16 year
olds), they must have spent many extra hours making their games.
We did not set any homework, but many students worked on them from home voluntarily. We lost one week, because of the Coup
and SATS, but if anything children spent more time on these projects than they would otherwise have been able to.
