I am just starting to teach Python to our second year pupils (12-13 years old) and have put together a nice 7 week package of everything you need to deliver the course including:
- A Controlled Assessment
- The Mark Scheme,
- ALL Resources &
- Schemes of Work
(I have used Alan O'Donohoe's previous Python materials and have're-packaged it' and added to it to suit my own needs, so please accept my acknowledgements Alan!)
Level: Beginner Duration: 7 x 35 minute lessons (with assessment on Week 7) Edit:more likely to take 8 - 9 weeks to cover having done 2 cycles of this. Areas covered:
- (no previous knowledge)
- Opening & closing Python
- The need for Variables
- Capturing user's input ( input() )
- Data Types
- Control Structures (namely If Statement)
By the end of the course, pupils will be able to create their own programs which prompt the user's for input and hence evaluate the user's input in order to output a conditional message
