They contain a series of programming projects that gradually introduce pupils to algorithm design and evaluation, generalisation and decomposition. Pupils will learn how to use sequence, repetition, selection, variables and procedures through becoming creators of a wide variety of programming projects from a range of different genres.\u003cbr\u003eIn addition, there are also two home learning books that have been devised for children to learn programming in a home learning environment.\u003cbr\u003eThe Scratch programming language, widely recognised in schools, is freely accessible online or as a download and is the ideal place to begin programming.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Legend Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41913047941317,"sku":"9781915054203","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/3696\/2501\/products\/9781915054203.jpg?v=1669806172","url":"https:\/\/thebooksocial.co.uk\/products\/teaching-primary-programming-with-scratch-teacher-book","provider":"The Book Social","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
