#SCUChallenge 82 - Coding Part 2!

This is the second part of our 'Coding for Kids' Challenge! (find the first one here: https://bit.ly/SCUChallenge76)

Coding is a really important skill - it's being able to work out step-by-step instructions (an 'algorithm'), spotting and developing patterns ('programming'), and working out where they might have gone wrong ('debugging'). Part 1 set us up with the basics, so once you've mastered them, have a go at this one where you'll learn skills in 'logical reasoning' – (explaining why something happens). You'll also learn about 'decomposition' (breaking down a task into smaller, more-manageable parts) and 'persevering' (being determined, resilient, and never giving up) - great skills for life!
