This bundle was created due to a lack of Computer Science past papers. It contains two specimen Unit 1 papers. One follows the official specimen paper quite strictly, with scenarios, and numbers changed. The second words questions in a different way. Both have official type covers, marking criteria, format, and layout. They also have a mark scheme each. There is over 25 hours work here, so pick up a bargain, save yourself some time!

This is part of a pack aimed at GCSE year 11 Edexcel students preparing for paper 2. A lesson teaching trace tables. The lesson begins very much scaffolded until they are able to understand all concepts, then answer two exam paper questions on the topic (from the summer series and the specimen) including the mark scheme answers.

This is part of a pack aimed at GCSE year 11 Edexcel students preparing for paper 2. A lesson teaching relationships in database. The lesson begins very much scaffolded until they are able to understand all three concepts, then answer questions.

This is part of a pack aimed at GCSE year 11 Edexcel students preparing for paper 2. A lesson looking at code and predicting the outcomes. The lesson begins very much scaffolded until they are able to understand all three concepts, then answer two exam paper questions on the topic (from the summer series and the specimen) including the mark scheme answers.

This is part of a pack aimed at GCSE year 11 Edexcel students preparing for paper 2. A lesson teaching data types and database relationships. The lesson begins very much scaffolded until they are able to understand all three concepts, then answer two exam paper questions on the topic (from the summer series and the specimen) including the mark scheme answers.

This is part of a pack aimed at GCSE year 11 Edexcel students preparing for paper 2. A lesson teaching input, processing and output. The lesson begins very much scaffolded until they are able to understand all three concepts, then answer two exam paper questions on the topic (from the summer series and the specimen) including the mark scheme answers.

This is part of a set of resources aimed at GCSE year 11 EDEXCEL students, to prepare them for paper 2. This actual one covers the different types of error, and includes an exam question from the summer series to practice.

A one hour validation lesson which engages students and shows them why, and how we use validation. They must be taught integer input first to understand this lesson. There are bronze silver and gold outcomes and resources are on the ppt itself.

An engaging resource which develops an understanding of manipulating lists in Python. There are two lessons here, first to introduce the topic and the second to consolidate learning. The answers are included as are extended learning tasks.

As the last dingbats last year was hugely popular, I have created another for this summer. This could be used as an end of term educational lesson, or chopped up and put on your lesson as an engaging activity when they enter the room. There are 18 different dingbats, and the answers are included after each one. Enjoy!

This half a term worth of lessons cover: error types data types relational databases test Each lesson begins with the basic concepts, then adds until they are at GCSE level. Students have been very engaged with this work.

This is a whole half term of work relating to the questions appearing in the second Computer Science paper. The lessons are on input, processing, output selection statements boundary testing recognising constructs trace tables a test The lessons guide the learner from easy to understand exercises, to GCSE level exercises. There is a learning question focus for each lesson, but in some cases the bronze silver and gold outcomes have been left blank for you to tailor to your classes. There is enough work here for a half term.

An engaging resources which allows the learners to find errors marked with hashtags. The slides include the broken code (fixed code is on the teacher slides, separate and can also be received via email). Even if you choose not to use this for debugging exercises, it is useful for programming ideas for beginners to copy. After each script the learners are encouraged to state initial tests, actual tests, in preparation for GCSE NEA work. My learners raced up the stairs to start on these tasks, very enthusiastically. The topics include maths, strings, lists, tuples, concatenation, for loops, sub routines and appending to lists. The scripts can also be used as base scripts for other ideas. At the end of the half term of work, there is a challenge project, worded like a very watered down GCSE project. Enjoy!

This contains a starter where students are asked to ponder what makes an animated card interesting. The scripts are then given for learners to create a fully animated e-card. It includes moving snow, decorations that find their way to the tree, a star coming from the sky and landing on the tree. Baubles that flash, and a merry Christmas sign that lights up. Some features start automatically and others are interactive. This can be used from around age 7 right up to year 11! Everyone loves a Christmas theme! The lesson ends with a bronze, silver gold worksheet which allows differentiation from a cloze key word task, to considering real life uses, and ends with Blooms evaluative task for more able learners. There is also a homework / extended learning task available. Two learning walks have been rated outstanding with this lesson.

From absolute beginner. These could be used as solutions (given as problems to solve). Or used to copy code and annotate. Or even 'broken' and used as debugging tasks. The scripts all have a Christmas theme to keep learners engaged for the run up to Christmas. The skills / constructs included are: Using strings If, then else Tuples Import time Import webbrowser Maths Append to list Sub routines While loops For loops Sorting Concatenation Casting You will use this invaluable resource with different scenarios over and over again! Enjoy - and merry Christmas to you!

Part of the follow me range, designed for younger learners, non-readers, or EAL pupils. The learners are able to follow the circles on a slide show to code a lady dancing to a guitar. Skills built in this: adding stage adding and editing sprites changing costumes adding music changing beats to suit using a forever loop using delays There are two certificates to be gained in this very engaging lesson(s) This resource could be used by an independent learner, or by a teacher going through the slide in turn. It's real strength though is with non specialists, helping those who are unable, or unwilling to read. The lesson is very visual, and the audio also makes it engaging.

I have created this resource to take the child through adding a sprite, a stage, colour change, music loops, speech, and movement. The theme is crazy monsters, as they are in the disco, you will see the delight when they can have a highly interactive monster change colour and play music loops. There is very little text on the screen, designed for the very young, or those who have English as a second language. They just follow the circles on each slide to add to the coding. There are 36 slides, with a certificate for the basics, then extension work for faster learners. You won't be sorry you bought this idea and activity as you see their engagement and delight.

This lesson, with learning objective and bronze, silver, gold outcomes introduces lists in Python. It uses ideas that they are familiar with, to teach the concept before the coding. Several examples are given, including populated lists, empty lists, and lists which can be appended with inputs. My learners were very engaged with the bronze silver and gold tasks, and all wanted to get researching to complete gold! None of the lesson expects prior Python knowledge other than opening it, and using print("this"). There is an extended learning task on the lesson too.
