Very interactive lesson that covers secure passwords and students researching and presenting areas on internet safety. I have included a lesson plan, and also a separate quiz, that you could use in a following lesson to check on retention, or homework.

A brief introduction to Python Turtle, which includes sequencing and also mini whiteboard plenaries. A novice teacher to Python will be able to deliver this effectively and extend the tasks to draw interesting pictures.. Please buy this, I have a staff night out coming up :-(

A fun and quick paced intro Python lesson with a, to quote "sick starter". Starter: Give one get one on images that relate to A.I. and a bit of a recap on Python turtle. After this students will build up conversation strings with if, else and elif statements. There is plenty of traffic light AFL points and a really enjoyable lesson. You will need to print off 2 pages I have included so they can do the starter and read the code. Please leave feedback on this, nobody does with paid resources, I never know how others are finding them. Cheers.

Students will sequence a set of instructions to navigate a moon rover to a set point on the map. This is quite basic but you can add further obstacles to suit. I have developed this by giving tasks to pick up stranded astronauts etc..

A brief into to Python getting students to use whiteboards to create and break codes, and identifying that when codes are not inputted exact the output wont work. Students use whiteboards / possibly traffic light cards to make this, somewhat dry topic, quite kinaesthetic and engaging. They will Print and store variables through the lesson.

An introduction into Python maths. This is really good to use as a transition lesson after a couple of lessons on Python with variables and print etc.. It shows the variables in maths and how Python could be used for good practical application. It's also mega fun, the worksheet is differentiated too so students can start at different points depending on ability and can be extended to introduce their own meals and prices etc.. There are lots of points set to assess understanding, mainly done through traffic light indicators. Students really love this, if you need a technical lesson on Python during the early stages to impress, this is it!! Also works as a good stand alone lesson for some good fun where lots of progress is made.

This gave a broad assessment approach to testing understanding from the KS3 Representation of Data unit. This is complete with an assessment pyramid and contains Included is assessment on types of data, binary, digital images, digital sound and logic gates.

Starts off with a guess the hardware quiz, students do their best to get as many as they can, then they have a "Give On Get One" activity to see how many more they can get. Run through some answers. Then students do a digital mix and match activity that is self marking, and gives good opportunity for progress. We run though some answers with traffic light indicators. Then students use whiteboards, or blank paper to answer 3 questions relating to hardware, that they may not know. Fox task research for peer learning. Plenary is to ask both same and similar questions on the hardware, now they should be able to answer well. I can't take all the credit for this as the mix and match resource was pulled off TES.
