## Class
Year 7
## Prior learning/place of lesson in scheme of work
Learn how to creating a **variable** to keep track of the current count. We will be learning how to create a counter app using a variable as well as simple commands, such as on button pressed, and show number.
## Documentation
```docs
input.compassHeading()
basic.forever(() => {
})
let x = 0
if (true) {
}
basic.showString("Hello!")

## Progression Pathways / Computational Thinking Framework
#### Algorithms
* Understands that iteration is the repetition of a process such as a loop. (AL)
* Represents solutions using a structured notation. (AL) (AB)
#### Programming & Development
* Creates programs that implement algorithms to achieve given goals. (AL)
* Declares and assigns variables.(AB)
#### Data & Data Representation
* Understands the difference between data and information. (AB)
* Defines data types: real numbers and Boolean. (AB)
#### Information Technology
* Collects, organises and presents data and information in digital content. (AB)
* Makes appropriate improvements to solutions based on feedback received, and can comment on the success of the solution. (EV)
Computational Thinking Concept: AB = Abstraction; DE = Decomposition; AL = Algorithmic Thinking; EV = Evaluation; GE = Generalisation
