I have created a set of 10 independent learning cards to be used with the program 2DIY. These are designed for pupils to pick up and explore on their own to develop their own creative programming skills. The cards are designed to be a stimulus for pupils to create their own game depending on their skills. I have also included the blank original in the same styling so you can make your own to add to the collection! Please review and share!

In my classroom I aim for the pupils to independently use the resources available to them in order for them to develop their skills at their own pace. These card are designed to be used with a Makey Makey board and a set of different classroom objects. They should be laminated when printed so thank the children can draw their ideas on them. Challenge pupils to come up with interesting and creative ideas without you having to prod them every step of the way!

For those teachers who are stepping in the world of coding and computing using a Makey Makey board can be a brilliant start. I have created a one stop shop starter pack for those who aren't very confident in how to use them in a classroom. The pack contains 4 lesson plans, complete with hand outs for the children, links to the new computing curriculum, photo guides showing you how to set up and links to pre-built Scratch apps to use with the pupils. Everything you need to get started. I have also included future steps and extension ideas, as with a Makey Makey, the possibilities are endless.

I've been using Kodu for a while now, and decided to pull everything I have together for this starter pack. Kodu is great for the new curriculum as it allows pupils to code and programme a game in real time, seeing how their programming affects the game instantly. In this pack I have included 2 units of work, a beginner and a more advanced level, as well as lots of bits to go with it. For anybody new to the programme, or to computing, this should be a great way to get going. Any questions about it tweet me @alwayscomputing

A very basic unit of work looking at introducing the skills of Google Sketchup to year 5's. They design a bedroom in stages over the unit, adding trickier elements as they progress. For more resources and inspiration follow me on twitter @theICTeacher

A ppt going through the history of how the iOS on iPhone has looked and some of its basic features. Followed up with a task from pupils to design their own using Photoshop. What would they do differently? Fantastic lesson to get pupils interesting in graphic design. \nFollow me on twitter @theicteacher for more resources and teaching inspiration!

A scheme of work where year 3 pupils look at different elements of photography and animation. In the unit they spend time creating a stop motion animation, then move on to editing images of nature using photoshop. follow me on twitter @theicteacher for more resources and inspiration!

Powerpoint with records of different aliens. Worksheet has questions that require the pupils to search the data base. \nWork taken from the program 2Investigate.\nFollow me on twitter @theICTeacher for more resources and inspiration!

3 Powerpoints (age specific) with a number of different activites and discussion points about staying safe online. This year's focus is &'Connect with Respect&'; so the themes are base around this. \n\nLinks within the ppts to discussion videos.\nFollow me on twitter @theICTeacher for more resources and inspiration!
