I tend to use these with a Kagan cooperative learning structure (usually 'Showdown' or 'Numbered Heads Together'). See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVvn7G792jI to see how the 'Showdown' structure works.

I've uploaded the worksheets here to accompany my EYFS Computing unit, which involves pupils creating their own version of the game Pokemon Go using the free iPad app Aurasma. This is a completely FREE unit to try from my Project Live online Computing curriculum. If you are interested in trying out the unit for yourself, you can Access ALL related resources including app tutorial, detailed lesson sequence and assessment information here: http://www.jecomputing.co.uk/unit-5.html

A planning sheet that pupils can use to plan their own platform game in Kodu. I use with my Year 5 pupils. I find that the second sheet enables them to plan out their algorithms first, as it prompts them to think about what they want each bot or object to do before then requiring them to write down their predicted algorithm.

A detailed description of the lesson can be found here http://jecomputing.blogspot.co.uk/2016/03/how-internet-works-case-study-lesson.html The scheme of work from which it was taken can be subscribed to here http://www.jecomputing.co.uk/project-live.html

Resources to accompany my KS2 lesson on 'packet switching'. A detailed description of the lesson and activity can be found here http://jecomputing.blogspot.co.uk/2016/03/how-internet-works-case-study-lesson.html and is taken from this Computing scheme of work which can be subscribed to here http://www.jecomputing.co.uk/project-live.html

I tend to use these as part of a Kagan structure such as 'Showdown' or 'Numbered Heads Together'. Here is a video showing how the 'Showdown' structure works https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jdTtnWMLVM The idea is that pupils take it in turns to turn over a card, write down their solution and the celebrate/coach depending on what the desired response should be.

The first resource will assist pupils in planning what text they will include in their iMovie trailer (using the iMovie iPad app) and prompt them to choose a specific template based on what the theme of their trailer will be. The second worksheet is a booklet containing all the iMovie trailer templates so that pupils can plan exactly what images/videos and text they will include throughout their trailer.

A poster I've designed and use within my Computing lessons to discourage learnt helplessness within Computing. Based on the 5B's principle of 'Brain, Book, Browse, Buddies, Boss' and based on a number of other one's I've seen online. Works really well in my Computing lessons as an aid to encourage greater student independence within lessons. The idea is that when pupils are stuck they work there way through each of the strategies listed on the sheet.

Covering all the objectives of the new Computing Programme of Study, each unit project is purposefully designed to fit into any curriculum topic or theme. Each of the 36 units contain; A brief project outline An in depth software or app demonstration video An objectives sheet (including the relevant statements from the Computing Programme of Study) An assessment sheet (used to record levels based on pupils' submitted projects) A self assessment sheet (to support and help pupils to keep track of their progress) A lesson sequence (with six, detailed individual lesson plans) Accompanying resources Subscribe at http://www.jecomputing.co.uk/project-live.html More information (including a choice of three free sample units to try) can be found at http://www.jecomputing.co.uk/scheme-of-work.html

Wanted to design a template to help year 6 with planning the design of their first mobile app before making it in Appshed, so came up with this design booklet for pupils to use during the initial planning stage. Thought this might be useful to others looking to do something similar.
