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.

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!
Quick and easy Computing activity for the whole class. Drag and drop eyes, nose and mouth onto pumpkins in this PowerPoint file. Print out for instant displays/decorations.
This is a super easy way to practice shading in fractions of shapes.
Click sections of the shapes to colour them in. Clicking them multiple times will rotate through 4 diffierent colours. Take on the challenge!

Use these two step-by-step picture guides to help you create digital graphs/charts. Print off the rainfall figures resources and teach you children how to enter information accurately into a database and then create a graph/chart from that data. Edit the titles, axes and colours. Perfect for honing Computing skills through Topic and Science!
Create brilliant pie, line and bar charts really easily using this resource pack. Including:
- Planning guide
- x2 step-by-step picture guides

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.

“Linn awoke, startled by a sudden jolt. As he slipped on his shoes he could sense that something wasn’t quite right…”
Write your own Titanic adventure stories where you, the reader and writer, get to choose your own path - just like Ian Livingstone the famous adventure book writer.
Differentiated 3 ways; on the computer, write 5,7 or 10 paragraphs describing a characters adventures through the sinking Titanic. These include cabins, steerage, upper deck, lower deck, first class lounge, grand staircase, bridge deck, boat deck, promenade deck and finally the lifeboats.
Once your paragraphs are written, play your PowerPoint as a slideshow from the beginning. Hyperlink buttons on each page will now present the reader with different options to take in order to complete their adventure. E.g. From your cabin, head towards steerage, the upper deck or the first class lounge.
Writing 1 or 2 paragraphs for each setting created dozens of teaching opportunities. Why not have each room be written for different effects? E.g. Suspense, setting description, senses, emotions…
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.
Pirates and Explorers
Choose from 5 different shaped hats and decorate them with a variety of items such as tassels, feathers, buttons and badges. The badges include all kinds of designs such as skull and bones, cross swords, flag, parrot, anchor and helm steering wheel.
A super simple to use PowerPoint file that allows you to drag and drop the items onto your hat. Rotate, resize and flip items to get the desired effect.
This resources is super great for teaching younger children how to manipulate objects on the screen and is perfect for individual use or group use on an interactive whiteboard.
Finally, with a couple of clicks, your hats can be printed out to create wonderful displays or look great in their books.
