Task cards that help your students’ confidence grow when learning programming!
Have you ever felt your students were just not grasping the basics when it comes to programming? Sometimes all they need is a little bit more practice and repetition of the simple things before you move onto more complex tasks.
With these quick programming tasks cards you can easily do just that.
40 TASKS CARDS WHICH FOCUS ON COUNT CONTROLLED LOOPS AND CONDITION CONTROLLED LOOPS AND NOTHING ELSE!
Created for use with multiple text-based programming languages such as Python, Visual Basic, C/C++, C#, Ruby and Small Basic.
These fun challenges are perfect to allow your students to recap skills you have taught them previously to help transfer those skills into their long-term memory.
Buy these quick programming task cards now to give your pupils the boost they need and deserve.
WHAT IS INCLUDED?
There are 40 different tasks and 4 more blank cards so you can create your own additional tasks if you want. Colour and black/white versions are both included (using the same 40 tasks in each) to help you save on printing costs. If you are using the black and white version, you can print them onto coloured paper or card to add interest.
WHAT PREPARATION IS REQUIRED?
These tasks cards are so simple to prepare and once you have created them, you can use them time and time again.
Print the pages you want to use. Colour and black/white versions are both included.
If you want to reuse them, you can laminate the pages or print on card.
Cut each page into 4 sections.
.
HOW CAN THEY BE USED?
Once you have your pack of cards you can easily use them at any time you want. You can use them in so many ways…
As a starter or plenary
To give your pupils more practice during a lesson
To give to quick finishers
To help lower ability pupils reinforce the key skills
.
To use them you can either allocate particular cards to pupils or allow them to pick a random card from the deck themselves. Your students then create the program and can test it out on a classmate.
The beauty of this activity is because all the pupils are working on different tasks their classmates will not know the answers and are often delighted by the silly and humorous responses they get from the computer.
Once students have one program working correctly they can pick another card which keeps the entire class fully engaged allowing you to focus on helping the students who need your one-to-one help.
An exciting and easy classroom activity to reinforce key programming skills.
What are you waiting for? Buy them now and give your pupils an activity they will simply love.
If you are still unsure how these can be used in your classroom, please check out my totally FREE If Statement Task Card set now so you can see how versatile and engaging these cards are for yourself.

Are you looking to expand your student’s knowledge of Python programming? These Python challenges give students 8 coding activities all focused on reading and writing to external text files using Python.
If you are familiar with my best-selling Python book “Python by Example: Learning to Program in 150 Challenges” by Nichola Lacey, these new challenges will expand on the skills taught and give your student’s more coding practice.
Download this wonderful set of Python challenges today to see just how useful they are.
WHO ARE THESE PYTHON CHALLENGES FOR?
These challenges assume students have some basic knowledge of programming with Python and know how to use input and a basic print statement as well as being familiar with using lists in Python.
WHAT IS INCLUDED?
This pack includes a single 5 page PDF which gives your students an explanation of reading and writing to external text files with Python, example code and 8 programming challenges for them to work through. You also get another PDF which contains printed versions of the suggested solutions AND you get the Python solutions in Python programs so you can open them and look at the code using an IDLE.
HOW CAN YOU USE THESE PYTHON CHALLENGES?
These challenges are very flexible and can be used in a variety of ways. The main PDF includes an explanation, example code and a page of Python coding challenges. Students can work through them individually and the attractive PDF handout makes a perfect homework task.
Alternatively you can print out the example code and page of Python challenges to give to your class as a starter, plenary or other in-class activity to enable your students to practise using their new skills.
You may even want to isolate the programming challenges into individual tasks, rather than use them as a printed activity to use them in your lesson as small individual coding challenges.
They are also ideal for quick finishers or to motivate higher ability students to keep them interested and learning a new skill whilst you help other students who need a little more reassurance of the basics.
As you have a separate PDF of the answers you can give them to your class at a later date for them to mark themselves, although most students do not require this as they will discover if their code works when they run it and will debug if they find an error. You could also have the answer sheet ready as a help sheet for those who are stuck and need help.
