QR Codes

Today we found out what QR codes are and what they are used for.

QR stands for Quick Response. They are odd-looking patterns that you see everywhere now; on adverts, in newspapers, on the back of cereal packets...

If you have a smart phone, you can download a free QR Code Reader app. Then you just need to point your phone's camera at the code and it should open up the website, video or picture that it links to.

Remember not to scan any codes, or open any links, without the permission of an adult.



Today we experimented with making our own QR codes. We used a QR code generator called unitaglive.com to make our codes, which all link to our blog. We will be putting them up around the school, to encourage people to visit our blog. We experimented with different patterns, shapes and colours.

Here are some super examples:
