The book PenguinPig, by Stuart Spendlow, is a wonderful introduction to e-safety, and gives children a simple and clear understanding of the dangers when using the internet. The story is well written and the illustrations by Amy Bradley are great for young pupils. This unit of work goes through the book, with children taking part in different activities, learning about how to keep themselves safe and whether everything they see is to be believed! Included is a unit of work, resource work sheets and examples. If you have any questions please tweet my @AlwaysComputing.

A quick introduction to Google Sketchup, with pupils creating a model of a viking Longhouse. Work is set over a period of 5 weeks, with each lesson adding a step and feature. Variety of skills used. Finally managed to work out how to upload Sketchup files so it comes with 2 models. One is a step by step guide, the other is an example. This is perfect for any schools with a 3D Printer!!

1 Week PowerPoint looking at Data Handling. Simple but should save you some time! When I used it in the classroom I used it as a starter for them building their own databases. Any questions find me on twitter @alwayscomputing

As a little pack for you to download I have put together all of the Google Sketchup models I have used and demonstrated with the pupils. Some are simple, others get tricky, but perfect for giving pupils examples of builds, or some work to adapt and manipulate! Also perfect for schools with a 3d printer, give your pupils goals to print to!

A collection of 6 levels built on Kodu for you to share and use with your class. Perfect for those new to the software who need some examples to share with their pupils. Feel free to change and adapt them, or use them to get the kids started with Kodu. Using these will allow the students to play the games, and then examine how they have been built and what programming has been used. Please share and review! Any help with these please contact me @AlwaysComputing on twitter.

2 weeks of planning on measuring. Resources are needed for different activities so some preparation is needed. *One lesson repeated on week 2 after disruption in my classroom, sorry for this! Worksheet attached to go with lesson 1, week 2. Follow me on twitter @theICTeacher for more resources and inspiration!

A selection of easy to use guides for an Itslearning Virtual Learning Platform. I have used a mixture of instructions and screen shots to make it a bit easier. Please Review! Follow me on twitter @theICTeacher for more resources and inspiration!

A quick powerpoint of teaching ideas when using a weather station in school. Many schools that have weather stations do not use them to their full capacity, and hopefully this will kick start a few teachers into using it! A fantastic resource for schools, would be a shame not to use it!

5 different lesson ideas all based around the theme of cryptography and code breaking. I've seen lots of stuff for secondary pupils on this topic, but nothing for primary, so I thought I'd give it a go! This could easily be adapted for KS3 as well too though! The last PPT on steganography needs you to download a little exe application on the computer, so make sure you've done that before the start of the lesson! Please review and give me some feedback as I'd love to add to it and expand on this. The lessons are all on PPT, and then the guides are little sheets for the pupils to use in the lessons to help them. This can be a really fun topic so I hope they come in handy!

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!

Daily activity board to display when the children arrive in the morning. Mixture of quick arithmetic, reasoning, spelling/vocab, and cross curricular questions. Edit the date at the top to fit your class. This PPT was made using the font Sassoon Primary infant, so formatting may change based on the font you use in school.

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
