Description
Classroom software for the BBC Micro, written by Fischer Educational for ages 7 to 11.
Provenance
Bought as part of a box of disks at an estate sale and donated anonymously. The disks had been stored beside a loudspeaker, and one track on each was weak. Most of the work survives, but some files are lost. The damage map lists them.
