- design, write and debug programs that accomplish specific goals, including controlling or simulating physical systems; solve problems by decomposing them into smaller parts
- use sequence, selection, and repetition in programs; work with variables and various forms of input and output
- use logical reasoning to explain how some simple algorithms work and to detect and correct errors in algorithms and programs
**NUMBER OF LESSONS **
Recommend 6 x 1 hour lessons, although this will work with slightly shorter or longer lessons.

This project is suitable for mixed ability classes.
**DIFFERENTIATION **
Lessons are differentiated by outcome and this is reflected in the success criteria and part of each lesson involves the students working independently, freeing up the teacher to offer more one-to-one help to the students who need it.
