Introduction:
Welcome to the fifth and final lesson of the Python series, followed by an assessment. This lesson focuses on Loops - For and While Loops in Python. Loops are used to iterate through a collection of data or repeat a block of code until a specific condition is met. For loops are used to iterate over a sequence of values, such as a list or tuple, and execute a block of code for each value. While loops are used to repeatedly execute a block of code as long as a specific condition is true. Both for and while loops are fundamental concepts in programming and are widely used in many applications. This lesson will start with clear lesson objectives and vocabulary, followed by an engaging starter activity - a fun word search. Students will be sure to enjoy and be motivated by the word search, and we recommend printing out the word search slide/3rd slide beforehand and giving it to the students as a starter. By the end of this lesson, students will have a solid understanding of loops and be ready to apply their knowledge in the upcoming assessment.

Introduction:
Welcome to the fourth lesson of the five-lesson Python series, followed by an assessment. This lesson will focus on If Statements in Python, teaching students how to create conditional logic and execute specific blocks of code based on certain conditions. This fundamental concept in programming is used extensively in many applications, allowing us to control the flow of our program by executing different parts of code based on whether certain conditions are true or false. The lesson will begin with clear lesson objectives and vocabulary, followed by an engaging starter activity - a fun word search. Students are sure to be engaged and motivated while completing the word search, and we recommend printing out the word search slide/3rd slide beforehand and giving it to the students as a starter. By the end of this lesson, students will have a solid understanding of If Statements and be ready to apply their knowledge in the upcoming lessons and assessment.
