What is this book?

Computing in Class 3 is hands-on. The book moves from everyday algorithms (the steps of ordinary tasks) to inputs and outputs, then to Scratch (block-based programming), moving and changing sprites, clear and concise programs and the micro:bit, a small programmable board. Unit 1 is the longest, with 96 pages and six sections.

The other units are about the data a computer can hold (How data can help us, Super spreadsheets), networks (Networks everywhere!, Secret ciphers) and computer systems (Hardware and software working together, The role of robots, Inputs and outputs around us).

A note for teachers on the contents page says that extra digital-only content is available through Cambridge GO and that the source files and a teacher guidance document support the programming tasks.

The four units in short

Unit 1 – Computational thinking and programming (pages 9–104). Six sections. Children first write algorithms for daily tasks, then learn inputs and outputs, and then build programs in Scratch and the micro:bit. Section 1.1 alone is 25 pages, because the idea of an algorithm is the base of everything else.

Unit 2 – Managing data (pages 105–141). How data helps us make decisions and how to use a spreadsheet.

Unit 3 – Networks and digital communication (pages 142–170). Networks around us and an introduction to secret ciphers (a fun way to learn about keeping messages safe).

Unit 4 – Computer systems (pages 171–209). How hardware and software work together, what robots do and the inputs and outputs we meet every day.

Why this book?

• It starts from everyday algorithms, which a Class 3 child can understand.
• Scratch and the micro:bit make programming practical.
• It includes data, networks and robots, not only coding.
• It comes with digital access to source files and a teacher guide.

Who is it for, and when is it used?

Who: Class 3 (Stage 3) children in schools that follow the Cambridge Primary Computing programme. When: through the school year. Unit 1 is usually the first two terms, units 2 to 4 the last term. Page numbers: Scratch starts on page 46, the micro:bit on page 85, spreadsheets on page 117 and robots on page 182.

How to help at home

• Write the steps for making a glass of water as an algorithm and test them with a family member.
• Let your child guide you around the room with "inputs" (spoken commands) and "outputs" (your moves).
• Draw a Scratch story on paper first: characters, moves and sounds.
• Make a simple bar chart of the family's favourite fruit in a spreadsheet.
• Try a secret code: move each letter one place along the alphabet.
