Week 1
Lesson 1
Starting with Python
Welcome to the world of Python programming! In this part, you'll learn about what Python is, how your computer understands it, and the basics like words (strings) and numbers (integers) in Python. You'll also learn how to do math with Python, create variables to store information, and write comments to make your code easy to understand. Plus, you'll work on a fun mini-project to see what you've learned in action!
 Week 2
Lesson 2
Making Choices with Python
Now, let's learn how to make your Python code make decisions! You'll learn about booleans (which are just fancy words for true and false), how to compare things (like checking if a number is bigger or smaller), and how to use if/else statements to control what your code does. You'll even make a Python Mad Libs game and tackle some challenges to test your skills.
 Week 3
Lesson 3
Lists and Rock, Paper, Scissors
In this part, you'll get to know lists, which are like containers for storing lots of things in one place. You'll also learn how to use libraries, which are collections of extra tools that make Python even more powerful. Plus, you'll dive deeper into making decisions with and/or operators, and create a Rock, Paper, Scissors game to play with your friends!
 Week 4
Lesson 4
Python Functions
It's time to learn about functions, which are like mini-programs within your program that you can use over and over again. You'll also explore floats, which are numbers with decimals, and practice converting between different types of data. You'll get to work on some mini-projects to practice writing functions and tackle more challenges.
 Week 5
Lesson 5
Dictionaries and Login System
This part introduces you to dictionaries, which are like lists but with a twist: they store information in pairs of keys and values. You'll also learn about global and local scope, which is about where in your code variables can be used. Plus, you'll update your Python login system project and learn about the importance of lifelong learning in coding.
 Week 6
Lesson 6
Loops and Animation
Get ready to dive into loops, which let you repeat parts of your code without writing it over and over again. You'll learn about for loops, using if/else statements with loops, and the break keyword to stop a loop. You'll also get a taste of the Python Turtle library to create animations, and work on a project to make a spiral animation.
 Week 7
Lesson 7
More Loops and Guess the Number
In this part, you'll learn about the modulo operator, which helps you find remainders, and the not operator, which flips true to false and vice versa. You'll also learn about incrementing and decrementing, which are just fancy ways of saying adding and subtracting. Plus, you'll create a "Guess the Number" game as a project!
 Week 8
Lesson 8
PyGame Zero and Space Catcher Game
You'll also learn about the latest updates in Python, control flow, and the PyGame Zero library for making games. Your final project will be creating a "Space Catcher" game, and you'll think about what interests you in coding and what you want to learn next.
