Primary school teacher workshops from Barefoot

Designed to boost subject knowledge and confidence, this workshop will introduce you to computational thinking in the Early Years and help you get started with Barefoot.

During the online interactive session, you will give some of Barefoot’s Early Years activities a try and see how computational thinking links with the Early Years framework. You’ll also be introduced to the Barefoot website and our fantastic range of resources designed especially for Early Years.

This workshop is targeted at practitioners and teachers with little experience and confidence in teaching computational thinking.

This session will provide the perfect introduction to computational thinking in the Early Years and support you to get started, providing reassurance, resources to use and next steps.

Our Early Years Workshops are all hosted online through either Microsoft Teams, Zoom or Google Meet. Workshops typically last around 60 minutes – with plenty of time to ask questions.

Designed to boost subject knowledge and confidence, this workshop will introduce you to computational thinking and help you get started with Barefoot.

During the online interactive session, you will give some of Barefoot’s “unplugged” activities a try – proving you don’t need expensive kit to teach computing. You’ll also be introduced to the Barefoot website and our fantastic range of lesson plans and resources.

This workshop is targeted at teachers with little experience and confidence in teaching computational thinking and computer science.

This workshop provides the perfect introduction to programming in the Scratch environment through a series of code reading and writing activities (all with a camel theme!).  

It highlights the application of computational thinking skills in programming and introduces the concepts of sequence, repetition and selection through a series of interactive activities.

This workshop is best placed for beginner to intermediate Scratch users and we recommend you complete our Computational Thinking workshop first, unless you are already familiar with computational thinking concepts and approaches.

You will need to create a free Scratch account before joining this workshop.
