OCR GCSE (9-1) Computer Science - Keyword Activities

Ensure students get to grips with the technical terms in the new 9–1 specification with fantastic topic-by-topic activities. Covers all theory and programming elements, providing a sound basis for the course.

A high quality resource. I use the crosswords with high and middle ability and the word-match activities with my lower ability students. Dominoes allow all students access and make learning fun. M Sidell, HoD & Independent Reviewer

What do teachers say about this resource? (6786)

Fantastic vocabulary based resource ... It is clear specific specification related vocabulary ... Engage with specific terminology ... direct and clear ... Really helpful particularly for students with SEND

S Carter, HoD & Customer

Very useful - relevant and up to date... Students can get bored with the very wordy text activities, this is more fun... They love the dominoes matching game and the onscreen crosswords... It's flexible and good value directly linked to the current specification and relevant key words.

K Wallace (customer)

Quick, easy and purposeful... A fantastic time saver for providing revision and homework tasks. Also great for starter tasks... It provides a resource that can be quickly produced for group or individual tasks... All the key terms are there and grouped by topic.
