Intro Python Programming (Grade 5 or above)

This course introduces students to text-based programming using Python. In this course, students develop fun and entertaining applications in our project-based teaching model. The course is divided into a series of modules that cover fundamental concepts of programming that can be applied to any programming language. Students are also introduced to specific features of the Python programming language. Students work on hands-on coding in each class and develop a major project that is due during the last week of the course. The major project encourages students to put together all the concepts taught in the course to create a fun and imaginative project of their choice. This course does not require any prior experience with programming.

The modules in this course cover: Variables, Loops, Nested Loops, Functions, Conditionals, Events, Lists, Arrays, Random Numbers, and Math Functions.
