I always remember growing up watching my mum pour over puzzles books and never understood why. Now I’m a little bit older, and I should be wiser, I now know that everyone loves to solve puzzles – just the form they take differs.
For kids today, coding is a brilliant way to present puzzles for those curious, busy minds that love to crack a code or two.
The way the creative team wrap a story around the puzzles meaning that a child can decide to enjoy the quest or flick to the bits they want to solve. Either way, it is a one filled with fun.
It is always an honour to be asked to raise the profile of books that have education at their heart. Super Questers is a great series for anyone wanting to get better at understanding coding. The work that Lisa Moss and Dr Thomas Bernard have put in along with Amy Wilcox makes this a must read for any Primary school teacher looking to develop their computing curriculum. This is a brilliant series for kids who want to code.
Now for the teacher bit. Super Questers is a brilliant series for anyone hoping to inspire children to be more STEM minded. The problems throughout the books are a fantastic enhancement for any computing curriculum. Each activity is well illustrated and ideal for activating the hard thinking that embeds real learning for those willing to take up the challenge.
