THIS RESOURCE USES PYTHON VERSION 3. There are subtle differences between version 2 and 3, I believe. It's free to download though, so maybe update your systems. This is the first of my new resources on Python Programming. I'm teaching this to low ability year 9, though I know my higher ability year 7 would love it and I've also seen Python used within some primaries. It's suitable for any novice programming teacher. It includes everything to introduce Python's print function and basic variables. The lesson is fully resourced and will last at least a full hour, if not longer. If you're an absolute beginner, this is ideal. Just read it through and print before teaching - that's it! Look out for my other Python programming resources as part of this series. Enjoy.

Cut out and sort cards as a paired/group task to show the dos and don'ts when writing a CV. Includes a CV template for your students to edit, or write over if not in a computer room. Enjoy!

A quiz I made for Tutor Time, students have to name the capitals of 12 countries listed. Enjoy!

Free quiz I made for a tutor time activity. Enjoy!

Let’s learn about… Stakeholders! This lesson is FULLY resourced with a FULL lesson plan. It would suit a double lesson because of the amount of activities involved, though some could be used for homework or the lesson could be adapted for two single periods. 1. Starter - name all groups interested in the school 2. Introduce stakeholders 3. Who is each group? Differentiated. 4. What interest does each group have? Differentiated. 5. Birmingham Airport Case Study 6. Exit tickets to review understanding/learning Suits year 9 or year 10 students who have never covered stakeholders before. Enjoy!

Just to save you making them... 4 designs of Christmas cards for colouring. Print on A4 white card. Students could also design the inside, with a Christmas verse, and make an envelope from A3 coloured paper. Enjoy.

This lesson is PERFECT for an end of term Computing lesson or as a really FUN introduction to Scratch Programming. The 17 slide PowerPoint guides acts as your FULL lesson planning, guiding students through the process of making a racing car game in Scratch. It introduces and explains key terms like Spite, Stage and Variable as the lesson goes along too. If you wish, you could give students the glossary handout to complete throughout the lesson as seven key terms have been highlighted in PINK text to be written into the glossary and defined as the lesson progresses (optional extra!). The lesson includes a short peer assessment activity to look at each other’s games and offer pointers for improvements. In addition, the code on the handout could be annotated by students as a homework task or additional plenary. The lesson includes an extension challenge for higher ability students (fully differentiated by outcome, task and resources available to students). This would really suit KS2 or KS3 classes. My students LOVED it; I’ve used it with all of my year 7 Computing groups as a fun end of term lesson AND with my lower ability year 9 Computer Science GCSE group as an ice breaker introductory lesson to programming basics. Enjoy!

This 10 slide PowerPoint is a range of SIMILAR starter or plenary activities. See the video preview below. Can be used OVER and OVER again, so well worth the dollar. The first slides are grids with ANSWERS. Your students need to give the QUESTIONS. Great for questioning, great for differentiation/selecting specific students to answer. There's a version of the same starter which involves splitting your group into two teams to make the activity even more engaging. The slides are fully interactive to allow you to change the numbers RED or BLUE depending on which team gets a point. To ensure longevity of the resource, and the ability to use it LOADS of times with the SAME group, the starters have also been adapted to give questions for students to answer, just to shake things up a bit. Enjoy!

This resource depends on you teaching Business Ownership first (sole traders, partnerships and companies). Students should be given a printed version of the puzzle (the one with two pages). I get them to work in pairs as they can both be cutting at the same time to reduce ‘cutting time’. They both cut out one of the pages then get to work creating a triangle solution by connecting matching statements. There is only ONE way the puzzle will become a triangle correctly, so it’s trial and error but a GREAT task to consolidate learning of Business Ownership topic. I then get learners to stick their puzzles down on A3 paper (two sheets, because it just sticks over one A3 page). Alternatively, you could cut the puzzle and laminate for year on year use. I’ve included the solution. To ensure ALL students can access it, I print the solution on A3 paper and stick it in the corridor. Each pair gets a few chances to go out and take a peek, if needed. Finally, I’ve included a plenary to review the tarsia puzzle and a homework true or false activity on Business Ownership, this might work well as a homework task to see what students have learnt from the puzzle. Enjoy!

This is another in my 'Let's Learn' series. The lesson gets students to think about their initial ideas before introducing start-up and running costs so progress can easily be judged. The lesson PowerPoint is equally good for revision if printed or made available electronically so it's even more of a bargain! There are two main activities (one is an exam style question assessment that can be peer marked with teacher guidance. The lesson plan is included to guide teachers through every step of the lesson. Enjoy!
