Curriculum alignment:
Aligned to the Australian Curriculum v9 Digital Technologies strands (Knowledge and Understanding; Processes and Production Skills – investigating and defining, generating and designing, producing and implementing, evaluating, collaborating and managing) and mapped to equivalent US (CSTA K-12 CS Standards) and UK (KS3 Computing National Curriculum) strands, so it fits a standard scope-and-sequence in any of the three curricula. Suits Year 7 / Grade 7, Middle School / KS3.

Why this bundle:
One download instead of hunting down two separate units – consistent formatting, sequencing, and assessment style across both, so planning the term takes one purchase, not several.
