Presentations and activities introducing programming/hardware terminology using Scratch and Python

This set of 6 presentations and activities introduces simple programming and hardware terminology initially using Scratch and then simple Python instructions. Computing storage is introduced through the use of the relevant Scratch blocks to explain their usage. Finally, simple Python instructions are introduced using their associated Scratch blocks. Students begin by creating simple input and output programs using Scratch and then move on to creating a Magic 8 Ball game in Scratch. Students then move on to Python to create a simple output/input program and then finally create a simple adventure game in Python.
