Teaching primary computing without computers? The Computing
curriculum is a challenge for primary school teachers. The
realities of primary school resources mean limited access to
computer hardware. But computing is about more than computers.
Important aspects of the fundamental principles and concepts of
computer science can be taught without any hardware. Children can
learn to analyse problems and computational terms and apply
computational thinking to solve problems without turning on a
computer. This book shows you how you can teach computing through
'unplugged' activities. It provides lesson examples and everyday
activities to help teachers and pupils explore computing concepts
in a concrete way, accelerating their understanding and grasp of
key ideas such as abstraction, logic, algorithms and data
representation. The unplugged approach is physical and
collaborative, using kinaesthetic learning to help make computing
concepts more meaningful and memorable. This book will help you to
elevate your teaching, and your children's learning of computing
beyond the available hardware. It focuses on the building blocks of
understanding required for computation thinking.
Teach computing with confidence, whatever your level of subject
knowledge. A component of the Oxford International Primary
Computing series, Teacher's Guide (levels 1-3) gives you the tools
you need to grow students' digital literacy and develop their
computational thinking and programming competence. Providing
support at every level, this guide provides expert guidance and
support for delivering compelling lessons at every level. Within
each stage, key concepts are covered to give learners not only the
skills they need to use technology effectively, but also the
knowledge in how to do so creatively, safely and collaboratively.
The Kagiso readers series is an illustrated graded reading scheme
for the foundation phase, which presents a range of situations and
contexts authentically and realistically. These readers will enable
learners to develop literacy skills incrementally and with
confidence to motivate them to read further. Reading is integrated
with other aspects of language, thus developing listening,
speaking, writing, thinking and reasoning skills, as well as
language structure and usage. Available in the following languages:
English, Afrikaans, Siswati, Sesotho, Xitsonga, Tshivenda, IsiZulu,
IsiXhosa, Setswana, Sepedi, IsiNdebele.

A complete six-year primary computing course that takes a
real-life, project-based approach to teaching young learners the
vital computing skills they will need for the digital world. Each
unit builds a series of skills towards the creation of a final
project, with topics ranging from designing your own robot to
programming simple games and designing and creating web pages.
Within each stage, key concepts are covered to give learners not
only the skills they need to use technology effectively, but also
the knowledge in how to do so creatively, safely and
collaboratively: A* Understand how modern technology works A* Use a
wide range of computer hardware and software for analytical and
creative tasks A* Use the internet safely, respectfully, and
selectively A* Write computer programs and develop computational
thinking
