Luke also taught Mrs Warner how to use Scratch.

Scratch is a programming language that makes it easy to create your own interactive stories, animations, games, music, and art -- and share your creations on the web.
As young people create and share Scratch projects, they learn important mathematical and computational ideas, while also learning to think creatively, reason systematically, and work collaboratively.

We will all be having a go with Scratch next week, but if you want a head start, download and get programming!
