Loop cards are a great game that can be played individually or as a class. They are perfect for review key vocabulary or questions at the end of a topic or when revising for an exam.
Instructions
Cut out the cards from the paper horizontally (but don't cut them in half!) and then shuffle them.
Now start joining each question on the right hand side of the card to the matching answer on the next card.
Carry on until all the cards loop together and you have competed the game!
Hint: Make sure that you set your paper to portrait to print 4 cards per sheet of A4 paper.
Virtual memory is a technique used by an operating system to allow a computer to compensate for shortages of physical memory by temporarily transferring pages of data from random access memory (RAM) to disk storage.

Kernel
The kernel is a central component of most computer operating systems; it is the core part of the OS that manages input/output requests from software, translates them into data-processing instructions for the central processing unit and interfaces with the computer's memory and peripheral devices.
SD Card
A non-volatile storage device used in cameras, phones, and other mobile devices.
Accessibility
The design of an application to enable people with disabilities to use it successfully.
Binary representation
A way of representing data using only two digits, usually 0 and 1.
