Set of 14 lessons created to introduce why loops ( for and while) are used in programming by drawing a range of different shapes. Text handling including 1 D and 2D arrays. Procedures and functions are investigated by drawing shapes and controlling electronics in Tinkercad. Includes all program solutions - Python source files. Includes lots of exam questions to test understaning (with answers) Created for Computer Science GCSE Course Lesson 1 - Intro to Python with Trinket - Drawing Lesson 2 - Python with Trinket - For Loops know that loops are also known as iterations know what a for loop, why it is use and how it is used be able to create basic shapes with and without For Loops create more complex shapes and be able to use colour for outline and fill Lesson 3 - Python with Trinket - While Loops know what a while loop is , why it is use and how it is used be able to create basic shapes with and without while Loops create more complex shapes and be able to use colour for outline and fill Lesson 4 - Python Drawing Shapes with Loops Summary be able to investigate geometrical shapes and fractals create own fractals by testing and upgrading other fractal programs. Lesson 5 - Working with Text part 1 be able to input, store and output text characters know what a constructs are – sequence, iteration and decisions be able to use constructs to communicate with the user Lesson 6 - Working with Text part 2 know what programming constructs are be able to confidently use selections - if else and if elif else statements solve a range of complex problems Lesson 7 - Working with Loops know what a while loop is be able to use them in a range of different programs Lesson 8 - Working with Random Functions Lesson 9 - Summary Lesson 10 - Arrays 1 D Lesson 11 - Arrays 2 D know why 2 D arrays are used be able to create, and process data from 2 D arrays know what a nested for loop is and understand how it is used to read data in a 2D array Lesson 12 - Procedures and Functions - part 1 be able to create a simple calculator program identify ways to improve it know what a procedure is and be able to use them in own programs know what a function is and be able to use them in own programs Lesson 12 - Procedures and Functions - part 2 Lesson 13 Modular Programming Summary be able to build and program basic circuits in Tinkercad be able to create a program to control an led be able to use a flash procedure to control the number of times an led flashes Know the difference between procedures and functions and complete missing word activity

This is a difficult subject often briefly covered by having classes share some variables. These resources will help students understand the advantages of using classes with lots of practical activities. I use this activity with Btec level 3 students - Unit 15 Object Oriented Programming. and Foundation Degree Students, The resource Consists of a number of programs written in Python.

8 lesson bundle consisting of lots of practical activities and differentiated tasks with answers (written and html pages), so learners can practise what they have learnt culminating in website project. An introduction to common html tags and CSS styling. Basic - intermediate level. (40 Pages in all). Lesson 1 : Introduction to Html Lesson 2 : CSS - formatting text Lesson 3: CSS - formatting backgrounds Lesson 4: CSS - styling tables Lesson 5 : CSS - images and hyperlinks Lesson 6 and 7 : CSS - Layout styling div tags ( fixed and floating) Lesson 8 and 9 : Creating your website project 4 additional interactive lessons created in Powerpoint with all source code and answers ( 30 pages in all) - see video preview
