Fun Christmas activity that gets students to think about words related to Computer Science - They have to use the letters in the Christmas phrase to make words.
Points scored depending on the number of letters - Can be turned in to a competition.
Christmas task - convert numbers in to binary, find the colour associated with that binary number and colour in the blank pixel grid to reveal a Christmas related image.
Students use the Inputs and Outputs and draw the possible logic gates that could be placed where the ? is.
The 2nd side of the sheet looks at the use of multiple gates.
Activities to get students working with 2d arrays. Activities include tracing algorithms and writing pseudocode.
I have also included the answer booklet or this task.
A set of three code breaker starter activities on the topics:
INPUT DEVICES
DATABASES
CPU
Encourages students to think about the key terms associated with the topic in question.
Binary logic puzzles - Encourage logical problem solving skills.
Starter / Extension task - This PDF document comes with three challenging binary number puzzles with each page containing some practice grids.
