-Success Criteria:
-I can list some examples of computers;
-I can identify the input, process and output for a type of computer;

2.Information Technology
-Learning Objective: Understanding information technology and how it benefits our daily lives.
-Success Criteria:

The learning is guided by a clear and comprehensive PowerPoint presentation (28 slides in total) and all of the worksheets/ templates needed for the activities.
In the past, I have used these lessons with children between Years 2 and 4 - the key learning is aligned with curriculum expectations for computing. All images are licensed for commercial use.
