Easter Bunny Newsletter with Publisher (Computing or IT KS2 / KS3)
Create a newsletter from Easter Bunny with Microsoft Publisher. Full instructions provided, works on both ICT and English skills for a fun session! Make sure the students have access to the instruction sheet (included).
Give them the instructions, show them the example and they’ll have enough for a lesson or two’s work.
Regular expressions for GCSE and A level computing
An introductory presentation and worksheet (with answers!) that can be used for GCSE students or, likely, A-level students.
Dijkstra's Algorithm for Computer Science
Dijkstra’s Algorithm
The way I would run this is to talk through the motivation for the algorithm from the presentation, and give the terminology worksheet to be filled in (answer in the presentation). We’d then work through the brute force worksheet. I might then run through the example, then give them the simple graph to fill in. Than we would work through TaskGraph1 for the graphs. Then I might get them to either code, or come up with graphs for them to solve in small groups or in pairs.
Included:
TPT presentation
Labels to fill in worksheets to give structure for the students to fill in answers
TaskGraph1 3 graphs to run Dijkstras on.
AnswerGraph1 and 2 -answers for the graphs
Brute force worksheet and brute force worksheet answers

GCSE Computer Science 9-1 – Revision carousel
For the AQA GCSE 9-1 Specification, and also suitable for OCR J276.
Designed as a revision carousel. Print out the worksheets before the session starts. The students can then move around the sections in groups. I run these as open book sessions and allow the students to revise / look up material on their phones / talk to try to solve the work as necessary.
Moving around the stops
You can tell the students that they have 10 minutes for each stop. If you pursue this strategy you can be flexible with the amount of time that the students have at each stop
Work and then present
Each section has quite an amount of sheets, and you could choose to put them all out and the students present what they have learnt after a 15-20 minute session.
Alternatively, the students move around the stops, and at each one write on post-it notes any queries that they have. You could then address these at the end of the session.
