Hi all! We teach Computing across different schools and often get asked for interactive resources - so that's what we make. Most resources you will find on here are interactive activities for the children to complete, either on their own device or as an interactive whiteboard activity! Please feel free to send requests or for variations of things found in our shop.

Using step-by-step picture guides teach your children how to insert data accurately into these 2 pre-made charts. Ideal for introducing digital charts.
Get your children to create their very own creatures/animals with this fantastic resource. Learn about how 11 different animals on planet Earth have evolved, inherited and adapted to survive. Next, pick one of the strange planets included in this pack. Read about what life is like on this planet and then create your own creature/animal that that would survive there! You can do this in any way you like but, included in this resource, is a download link to some 3D animal templates!
Summary:
-11 attractive and annotated animal profiles that highlight how each creature has evolved, inherited and adapted to survive.
-7 strange planet profiles each with it’s own predators, prey and various weather conditions.
- 4 Scupltris 3D template files: 2-legged, 4-legged, bird and insect models. (download link included)
- Thank you note.

Combine Literacy and Computing with this Microsoft PowerPoint document that retells the classic fairy tale of The Three Little Pigs. Whilst the illustrations are non-editable, the story boxes are ready to be typed into by either yourself or your children. Visuals created by Martin Goulden.
A superb drag and drop PowerPoint activity for the whole class. Recreate famous Egyptian gods/goddesses such as Ra, Isis, Anubis and Thoth. Or, create your own characters - group your characters together and create your own scene. When you’re done, simply print them out for your books or for display.
Create your very own Lowry style paintings in KS2 digitally. Copy and paste buildings that have been individually recreated in the Lowry style to create your city scene. Then populate your city with Lowry people. Teach yourself and your children more about layers and perspective by using PowerPoint's send backwards/forwards and resize tools. Finally, you can print out your paintings straight from this PowerPoint file on any size up to and including A3. A perfect activity to group model on the interactive whiteboard and then to be used on laptops/desktops as an individual digital art activity.
Create your very own Lowry style paintings in EYFS and KS1. Drag and drop buildings that have been individually recreated in the Lowry style to create your city scene. Then populate your city with drag and drop Lowry people. Finally, you can print out your paintings straight from this PowerPoint file on any size up to and including A3. Suitable for use on the interactive whiteboard as part of continuous provision or on laptops/desktops as an individual digital art activity.
Get all of our quizzes in one helpful bundle.
Useful to use across in the school to help children to retrieve prior learning, don’t just have to be used in the Year group that you teach that themed topic in.
All our quizzes can be bought individually too.

Set sail across the seas in in a creaky, wooden ship destined for adventure, new lands or even treasure!
Included in this package:
A superb 12 minute video hook showing a 1st person experience of life as an adventurer. Check the map, raise the sail, steer the ship and dig for treasure where ‘X’ marks the spot!
A printable/editable instruction template to halp structure your writing.
Using the explorer video as a hook, get your children to write their instructions on ‘How to find treasure/land’ on the printable templates. Alternatively, tick off some Computing skills and get the children to type their instructions on the digital template.
If you want to make your own treasure maps, explorer hats or your own pirate pendants. Check out my other items on my TES shop HERE.

Have yourself a Spanish Day! Gather your children around the interactive whiteboard for some interactive games that will teach them the Spanish names for animals, hobbies, food, numbers, days of the week and months of the year.
A variety of interactive whiteboard resources and Computing resources aimed at learning the basics in Spanish.
An incredibly extensive but easy to use file contains:
36 types of arithmetic questions.
30 randomly generated questions for each question type. That’s over 1000 questions!
Each set of questions is differentiated 3 ways with difficulty progression within.
Easily printable for worksheets and answers are printable too.
Even better completed on the computer by the children as it AUTOMARKS the work giving instant feedback and opportunity to correct.
Infinite re-usability due to being able to random generate new questions with the click of a button.
For the best description of this resources, please watch the associated YouTube video.
My name is Martin Goulden and I’ve worked in Primary Schools for over 10 years, first as a TA and now as an independent Computing specialist. As my wife is a teacher, I know the pressure that teachers are under in order to provide individualised learning, assessment and feedback for each child. I once saw a teacher spend hours and hours preparing and then marking a handful of individualised arithmetic questions only to find that, as usual, some children had completely missed the mark. I had to help, not just the teachers to save the hours of prep and marking time but the children too, to give them instant feedback and satisfaction during their arithmetic sessions.
It has taken me around 100 hours to create this resource in the hope that it will collectively save teachers thousands of hours and provide children with a great platform to learn from.
Test children on a variety of traditional Computing skills. Plus a couple of additional Computing activities to extend skill consolidation and a FREE E-Safety username presentation!
Love the idea of clay but remember how messy it was last time?
These several, step-by-step picture guides teach you the basics of a computer program called Sculptris - a free 3D modelling program that simulates clay.
