Kapow: Y1 (digital imagery)
This is a full, free unit courtesy of Kapow. Teachers use Kapow to plan a number of subjects in school, so we can recommend it highly! It is pitched at Y1, but that does not necessarily mean other year groups couldn't access it. Have a go!
Top tip: Kapow includes helpful 'how to' videos for each lesson, so check those out first!
