## Class
Year 7
## Prior learning/place of lesson in scheme of work
Learn how to get the **acceleration**, `acceleration` in one of three specified dimensions. We will be learning how to get the acceleration using a forever loop, local variables, input on button pressed, as well as simple commands, such as show number and pause.

## Progression Pathways / Computational Thinking Framework
#### Algorithms
* Designs solutions (algorithms) that use repetition and two-way selection, ie if, then and else.(AL)
* Uses logical reasoning to predict outputs, showing an awareness of inputs (AL)
* Represents solutions using a structured notation (AL) (AB)
* Can identify similarities and differences in situations and can use these to solve problems (pattern recognition)(GE)
#### Programming & Development
* Creates programs that implement algorithms to achieve given goals (AL)
* Declares and assigns variables(AB)
* Understands the difference between, and appropriately uses if and if, then and else statements(AL)
* Uses a variable and relational operators within a loop to govern termination (AL) (GE)
#### Communication Networks
* Demonstrates responsible use of technologies and online services, and knows a range of ways to report concerns Understands how search engines rank search results (AL)
#### Information Technology
* Collects, organizes, 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)
* Recognises ethical issues surrounding the application of information technology beyond school.
Computational Thinking Concept: AB = Abstraction; DE = Decomposition; AL = Algorithmic Thinking; EV = Evaluation; GE = Generalisation
