Coding
In love with Scratch programming language and community! It feels like Home to me. Loving playing and learning in P5.js, and experimenting with MakeCode and Micro:Bit for making with tech, code and creativity.
below are some personal projects with code, that I loved learning through creating…
as well as some links to Explore on your own Creative Learning journey!
Scratch Flying Hippo Robot
Make the Scratch Flying Hippo sprite fly out of the screen, as a papier mache and Micro:Bit Robot
made for #MicrobitVirtualParade
(sshhhh… a secret: click on Hippo and the clouds in this Scratch Project to see what happens…)
watch Hippo fly…
…and see full Robot build process here…

be inspired by some Scratch Ideas
use a micro:bit (or the online simulator) to try Micro:Bit Projects
playfully explore Scratch together at WeScratch free online workshops!
Ranjani Waves
P5.js recreation of Ranjani Shettar's Touch Me Not
made while exploring Computational Mama‘s inspirational Recreating with P5js creative coding course
…this example sketch looks different every time it runs…
for the Adventurous: you could try changing any number in this project, just to see what happens…

watch our own playful process in Recreating with P5js course Show and Tell
lots of extremely cool videos on The Coding Train channel
made for #MicrobitVirtualConcert
Experimenting with Code:
…my first go at animating something physical in sync to music using code!
Used MakeCode to move the sewn on servo arms in time with the chorus, setting servo angles with timed pauses in between. By pressing play on the mp3 and Micro:Bit button A at same time, Love could 'sing' along.
…All You Need Is Love
Iterating:
Micro:Bit Version 2 can now measure sound levels and react…
