Key Stage 1 Programming
Age Range 7-

As part of my programming course next week I'm looking at debugging simple programs. As part of the day we'll be using floor robots. I wrote this activity so children can compare the routes to the algorithms to see where the mistakes are. The idea is that they discuss and predict what is wrong before using a floor robot (Beebot in this case) to try the route, find the mistake and debug the program. Level: Beginner
