Primary Scratch Plan

(12)
Simply the most comprehensive, fully resourced, Scratch programming plan on the web.<br /> <br /> Tested in five schools Including detailed lesson plans, success criteria sheets and support cards. 29 modules and growing<br /> <br /> Lots of other free primary computer science resources available here<br /> http://code-it.co.uk/csplanning.html

Computing Programming using Scratch Junior (Free on iPads & Android tablets) (Scratch Jr)

(2)
Travelling involved turning movement in the playground or hall into movement on the tablet. Pupils use algorithm creation, debugging and programming skills.<br /> <br /> Dance involves turning a human dance into one a sprite does on the computer. <br /> <br /> Conversation (coming soon)<br /> <br /> Moving Game involves working out what a simple moving game does before making it and then using the same principles to generalise it to make another similar game.

Crumble Junior Maker Cards

(1)
These cards are the first of many helping pupils to work out how to wire and program the Crumble control boards. (A very cheap resource to combine D&amp;T and Computing) I envisage the cards being used independently by more able pupils. Middle ability and SEN pupils can use the basic starter projects and then use the cards to adapt and extend the basic idea. I have used basic components for these first cards but I will be extending the range to include the excellent Crumbs produced by 4tronix, for a few pounds more these are much more rugged and will survive longer in the primary classroom. Ultimately I would love schools to make up packs and allow pupils to take these home and kickstart the junior maker movement. I would recommend that pupils use Scratch first at least to the Maths Quiz level as the programming blocks are modelled on Scratch.
