ICT focus Finding Information
Main activity CD ROM Search
Suggested resources My Most Amazing Human Body (DK)

This CD-ROM has a section on food and exercise, including an activity to takes a skeleton through a day. If you neglect to feed water or rest the skeleton the game ends. Remember that multimedia titles are invariably intended for an older audience. Pupils will require support from an adult and there will be a need for discussion about the results of a search and the use of indexes.

Searching for information is an integral part of the process of scientific discovery, as well as an important ICT skill.
