!Info

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Gemini

Programs which ask student to match pairs are quite common. Gemini though,
allows you to create your own games very easily and so the program can be
used across the curriculum. Although mainly for Key Stage 1 and 2, files for
older children can be created and used very effectively like those on this
disc which were created for Modern Languages. The latest version includes
sound.
 
The two files included on the disc are to help learn French and German
numbers up to 10.
