Barefoot Computing
Key stage 1
These easy to use resources, for pupils aged five to seven, from Barefoot Computing provide cross-curricular lesson plans and activities that integrate computing into the delivery of another topic. In addition, many of the activities do not require computers. For example, the spelling rules activity introduces algorithms as a set of rules and then asks pupils to deduce some rules for spelling to create an algorithm which they then test using a range of words.
