About this unit

In this unit children learn that a computer can be used to represent real or fantasy situations. They understand that the representation is not an exact replica of the original. They discuss the main differences and similarities between a representation and the original. They create their own representations of real or fantasy situations.

Children should be able to apply what they have learnt in this unit when exploring adventure programs or simulations.
