The 12 PDF worksheets included:

  • Human and Computer Tasks – Brilliant as a introduction to algorithms. Students decide which of the tasks are most suitable for a human or a computer/robotic system which form a basis of a class discussion.
  • Flow diagrams – Students explain what the shapes of the flow diagram are used for. They also read a flow diagram and demonstrate their understanding by giving the outputs for a variety of inputs. A lovely homework task or plenary.
  • Pseudocode – Students are given sample pseudocode using a If…else statement. They explain what the algorithm will do and then write their own pseudocode for another scenario. Great to check current understanding, as a plenary or for a homework task.
  • Pseudocode – Similar to worksheet 3 based on if…else if… else pseudocode.
  • Pseudocode – Similar to worksheet 3 based on while loop pseudocode.
  • Pseudocode – Similar to worksheet 3 based on for loop pseudocode.
  • Pseudocode – Similar to worksheet 3 based on using a list with pseudocode.
  • Pseudocode – Students examine a flow diagram and write the pseudocode to match the flow diagram. A nice in-class activity to reinforce learning.
  • Flow diagram – Students are given pseudocode for a while loop and they need to draw a flow diagram to match the algorithm. A Lovely starter or plenary activity to check understanding.
  • Pseudocode and flow diagram – A great 2-page worksheet. Students are given details for an algorithm they need to create based on a hotel costing system. They need to write the pseudocode and then draw the flow diagram for the algorithm.
  • Pseudocode and flow diagram - Similar to worksheet 10 based on an addition quiz algorithm.
  • Pseudocode and flow diagram - Similar to worksheet 10 based on a list algorithm.

 

Worksheets 9 to 12 are designed to be printed and filled in by hand due to the drawing elements involved.

 

Don’t forget the answers to each worksheet are included meaning you can use the answers yourself or give them to students for self-marking.
