 Computational Thinking - Unplugged Early Years

Last week Donna Golightly from 'Using Technology Better' has developed a site using the theme of Fairy Tales to support computational thinking.  I look forward to using the resources available through the following link. Fairy Tales  

The site has links to five well known Fairy Tales. Each Tale includes:
  1. links to curriculum areas
  2. computational thinking concepts
  3. activities
  4. literacy and/or maths focusses
  5. a digital technology focus
  6. sequencing images
  7. a grid mat
  8. assessment and reflection ideas.
This resource gives direction and structure for planning computational thinking units and could be adapted for different themes and learning levels.
We have also ordered a class set of Bee-Bots to with some plastic grids.
