This Computer Science Scheme of Work is a 6 week project for KS3 students (who have 1 lesson a week). It focuses on basic programming skills using Flowol, so is ideally suited for Year 8 students.

This is lesson 4 of the 6 lesson course. Lesson 4 covers:

  • Learning about Sensors and how they’re linked to decision
  • Discussing different examples of sensors and their roles in our daily lives
  • Programming an Automatic Home (based on sensors)
  • Discussing the advantages of sensors and how they are making our lives more automated

Lesson 4 is being sold at a low price. To grab a bargain, select the bundle package for the entire SOW!

The skills this Scheme of Work covers include:

  • Understanding what instructions and sequences are
  • Understanding the basic flowchart symbols (Start/Stop, Delay, Output, directional arrows)
  • Creating basic flowcharts in Flowol
  • Programming a Zebra Crossing and Crossing Patrol
  • Understanding the correct sequence of traffic lights
  • Programming Traffic Lights
  • Understanding the Decision Symbol
  • Using the Decision symbol in the Pelican Crossing
  • Learning about Sensors and how they’re linked to decision
  • Programming an Automatic Greenhouse (based on sensors)
  • Understanding Variables and Subroutines
  • Programming a Car park using Subroutines and Variables

Each lesson begins with objectives and outcomes being introduced to the students.

Worksheets (including differentiated tasks) are included, along with two homeworks which are linked to the SOW.

There is room for two assessments during the SOW. However these assessments are NOT included (only blank slides are left), due to different schools assessing student work in varying ways. However if you want the assessments linked to this SOW I am more than happy to provide them for free if required, when this SOW is purchased.

The main SOW is generated using Microsoft PowerPoint, and the information appears using basic animations, so students can experience the information one part at a time.

In addition, the Flowol programs that are part of the varying challenges are included, reducing teacher time as the resources don’t need to be created.

The linked worksheets are provided in Microsoft Publisher.

All resources are FULLY editable, so they can be adapted to suit the needs of your students.
