8x1 Binary Intro

LO - To understand binary basics

Outcome - a presentation about binary, what it means and how it works.


  • Create a presentation, moodboard, video or leaflet about Binary - for someone of your ages - as this is what topic we'll be moving onto next. 
  • You can use any piece of software available to you (Windows, not Mac)
  • You may work in pairs if you wish but please make sure you are working equally.  
  • Save you works a ' binary presentation' in your Sites folder. 
  • Remember what we learnt about presentations and not to make it too cluttered.


Your work should cover the following:


  • A explanation of what binary is
  • The history of binary
  • How it works


Use diagrams, videos, images to support your work.

These links will be useful, but use a search engine too:

Extension:  If you think you might understand a little more now, have a go at this game.  AFTER you've made your presentation.
