Do you find getting started with Python hard? In this first taste of Python, students will get off the ground. We will learn how to get Python to do our bidding and make a silly story program by the end. Students will program in the class and will be challenged to apply concepts in many examples and challenges. Students will be introduced to a concept and then try examples, looking for patterns and drawing inferences. The teacher will insure mastery over the material. To take this course, your child needs to be able to type with a speed of at least 20 WPM. No knowledge of programming is necessary. Topics covered: -What is Python? What is programming? -Printing out information -Variables and data types -Getting input from the user -Putting it all together to make a Wacky Story (like MadLibs)
