This Technology unit has been designed to introduce digital technologies to younger students; specifically, the purpose, structure and features of algorithms.
It consists of 3 lessons of approximately 60 minutes duration.
The sequence of lessons and suggested time frames should be regarded as a guide only; teachers should pace lessons in accordance with the individual learning needs of their class.

Use personal preferences to evaluate the success of design ideas, processes and solutions including their care for environment
Sequence steps for making designed solutions and working collaboratively
Recognise and explore patterns in data and represent data as pictures, symbols and diagrams
Follow, describe and represent a sequence of steps and decisions (algorithms) neededto solve simple problems
Create and organise ideas and information using information systems independently and with others, and share these with known people in safe online environments
Observes, questions and collects data to communicate ideas
Identifies how daily and seasonal changes in the environment affect humans and other living things
Observes, questions and collects data to communicate and compare ideas
Describes, follows and represents algorithms to solve problems
Describes observable features of living things and their environments

Use the basic features of common digital tools to share content and collaborate demonstrating agreed behaviours, guided by trusted adults
Evaluate the success of design ideas and solutions based on personal preferences and including sustainability
Sequence steps for making designed solutions cooperatively
