EmberEmber is a simple introduction to databases and filtering

It is ideal for use by Year 4, 5 or 6 pupils depending on their previous learning involving databases.

The pack revolves round the efforts of the heroine, Ember, to escape from a mysterious labyrinth.

On the way out, she will encounter various opponents, all of whom can be scared away by naming them (it’s well known that demons can’t bear the sound of their own name!)

Obviously, the only way Ember can find the correct name is by filtering the information from a database...
