It's slow to learn pupils interested inwards this topic. Here's to a greater extent than or less suggestions:
- Show them a painting present of a binary watch. I i time knew a Year thirteen who genuinely wore i of these to schoolhouse every day! My pupils were intrigued past times this too wanted to know how to read it.
- You could Pb into this theme through other reveal systems (Roman Numerals etc).
- Perform this fantastic binary magic trick. My pupils loved it! They were desperate to know how it worked.
- Tell them the joke "There are entirely 10 types of people inwards the world: those who sympathise binary too those who don't".
