This lesson has a range of challenges for some concepts of computing with a festive theme. Go in order of activities as they increase in difficulty and above all else fun, enjoy! Activity 1: Using Block Coding (link to external website for activity) Activity 2: Bitmap Drawings (embedded excel file students complete) Activity 3: Santa Claus the MicroBit game (link to external website for activity) A reminder that this is a onenote page which you can distribute to students and will require no other materials for a complete lesson. I would suggest at least 45-65 minutes depending on student abilities. It will require students to know their way around Makecode to complete activity 3 within a normal 55 minute lesson. However, this has been tested to be fun and last a full lesson for KS3 classes.

From leading a successful computing & ICT department for almost a decade with outstanding results. This is the accumulation of wealth and experience of how to run such a department with an all in one incredibly comprehensive document. The package includes a word and pdf file and while this will require editing, I do have all pages available in OneNote that includes ready to use templates for the department in my TES shop. However, you may find word file copies over just as well to provide a saving. I would encourage this for all aspiring heads of department and even curriculum leaders to download the resources to get a detailed breakdown of all the T&L thinking behind running a department involving KS3, KS4 and IB courses. Please review the file previews that shows the contents page of what is covered to check if this is something of benefit to your situation.

Computing has deep links with mathematics, science, and design and technology, and provides insights into both natural and artificial systems. The core of computing is computer science, in which pupils are taught the principles of information and computation, how digital systems work, and how to put this knowledge to use through programming. Building on this knowledge and understanding; pupils are equipped to use information technology to create programs, systems and a range of content. Computing also ensures that pupils become digitally literate – able to use, and express themselves and develop their ideas through, information and communication technology at a level suitable for the future workplace and as active participants in a digital world. The department aim is to create an environment where there is a desire to learn new skills, develop creativity, foster independence and appreciate reflection. Within this framework, we hope to inspire and excite all students within a demanding academic environment
