Diamond Ranking Grid
This is a classic diamond ranking grid. The students can rank some concepts into order.
Better still, the students can be given a case study, develop their own list of concepts and then order them .
You can use this in different ways:
• Print out the sheets
• Print out concepts for students to arrange on the printed sheets
• Print out the concepts and get students to arrange without the template
• Project a completed sheet onto an interactive whiteboard and get the students to drag the boxes around
• Enlarge the sheet onto A3 and get them laminated. Students can then use the sheets with a pack of Whiteboard pens to enable a wipe clean board.
Variables: Computer Science
A free resource so students can understand the important concept of variables.
There is a free (forever) accompanying website https://medium.com/@studeappsblog/what-is-a-variable-dd7e539bf388 that also provides some great information, but here you will access the worksheets and lesson plan that will make your lesson that bit easier!
