Using a Word Bank

In this unit pupils learn to use a word processor to assemble text held in a word bank and start to develop familiarity with the computer keyboard. Pupils will discuss the words they see around them and will understand that words convey information. They will use this knowledge to communicate ideas using ICT. This unit could be taught in reception. Pupils will be able to apply what they have learnt in this unit when writing short reports, lists and recipes.
