Hi Claire
A really fun game, brings me back to playing a similar unplugged one of this many years ago. The pupils would love trying this work. Would really help with grid work in Geography and maths too.

Digital tools and resources provide dynamic and exciting opportunities for our classrooms, engaging the learner and supporting our teaching. Digital technology in education helps to address the teaching and learning of 21st century skills and abilities for our learners, from problem solving, coding and creative practices. Quality Continuous Professional Development is considered in the documents within this module, it is critical that this is supported as it benefits the teacher, the learner and the whole school. This is also addressed in the SSE guidelines, in supporting the opportunities for the growth of educators and the skills development of our pupils.
The Digital Learning Framework guides the integration of digital skills into teaching and learning, promoting digital literacy across the curriculum, supporting Digital Citizenship and assessment of the learning.
The Digital Strategy for Schools to 2027 provides the vision for digital technology in schools, emphasising the importance of computational thinking and coding and digital skills for our learners. The strategy also supports planning and implementation of STEM education and provides guidance for teacher development in these areas. The importance of the Digital Learning Framework, with input from all stakeholders allows each school to look at where they are and what their chosen statement of practice is and how to effectively bring digital tools to use across all curricular areas. The framework supports schools to embed digital tools and technologies into their teaching and learning, thereby providing access and opportunities to our learners.
