THIS IS A DEMO OF A LESSON IN THE COURSE. IT ONLY INCLUDES THE SLIDES, PACING GUIDE, AND THE ASSIGNMENT.
THE ACTUAL LESSON ALSO INCLUDES A PDF ANSWER KEY, AND .JAVA RUNNABLE ANSWER KEY.
THIS WILL ALLOW YOU TO GET AN IDEA OF WHAT THE FULL COURSE LOOKS LIKE!
Hello and welcome!
Are you math teacher and have been thrown into teaching a computer science course? Now you have NO IDEA where to start! Have you taught computer science, but want to try something else? Math and computer science are related, but are not the same!
I have your back. I've been teaching math and computer science, including APCSP, APCSA, and Data Structures for almost two decades. I also teach an introduction course. This is part of the course I made up for my intro students. I have a BS in computer science and know what students need to know.
This is part 0 ("computer people" start counting at 0, we'll learn why!) and part 1 of an introductory Programming in Java lesson. These lessons are meant to be done on the first few days; the idea is to get students doing cool stuff as fast as possible. With Java, that is NOT an easy task.
Topics:
Programming in Java 0: An Introduction to Java
How to start using Java- installing the compiler
General error types
HelloWorld project
All lessons will come with the following:
a pdf slideshow
an assignment, differentiated with three different levels!
A pacing guide with hints for teaching the section and common student
errors
an answer key in pdf form
an answer key in .java form
THE DEMO HAS NO ANSWERS
Depending on your style, you could go over Programming in Java 0 on day 1, then let students play around. Go over Programming in Java 1 the next day and give them the attached assignment. Or you could just give them the slides and assignment and let them play.
Let students explore and make mistakes. Let them talk to each other and discuss their approaches. Programming takes a lot of trial and error.
Great for asynchronous learning and homeschooling! Could be used as a self- taught lesson or go at your own pace! Everything for learning is included!
Welcome to the world of programming! It's going to be a blast!

Programming in Scratch 0 and 1: Introduction to Scratch and Motion Blocks
By Howlin' Husky Math Games
Hello and welcome!
Are you math teacher and have been thrown into teaching a computer science course? Now you have NO IDEA where to start! Have you taught computer science, but want to try something else? Math and computer science are related, but are not the same!
I have your back. I've been teaching math and computer science, including APCSP, APCSA, and Data Structures for almost two decades. Scratch is a really easy to learn language to learn which makes it perfect for beginners. Block based coding looks very simple at first, but it is just as intricate as a keyed language. The difference is that coders don't need to memorize complex syntax to use it. This makes it perfect for younger kids; but it's still complex enough for older students.
This is part 0 and 1 a semester long programming in Scratch course.
Topics:
Programming in Scratch 0: Introduction to Scratch
Programming in Scratch 1: Motion Blocks
All lessons will come with the following:
a pdf slideshow
A pacing guide with hints for teaching the section and common student
errors
an assignment, differentiated with three different levels!
an answer key in pdf form
Depending on your style, you could go over the slides as a group, then let students play around. Or you could just give them the slides and assignment and let them go.
Let students explore and make mistakes. Let them talk to each other and discuss their approaches. Programming takes a lot of trial and error and collaboration.
Great for asynchronous learning and homeschooling! Could be used as a self- taught lesson or go at your own pace! Everything for learning is included!

How to make a random number
Useful methods in the Random class
Useful methods in the math class
casting
All lessons will come with the following:
a pdf slideshow
a pacing guide with hints for teaching the section and common student
errors
an assignment, differentiated with three different levels!
an answer key in pdf form
an answer key in .java form
Depending on your style, you could go over the slides as a group, then let students play around. Or you could just give them the slides and assignment and let them go.
Let students explore and make mistakes. Let them talk to each other and discuss their approaches. Programming takes a lot of trial and error and collaboration.
Welcome to the world of programming! It's going to be a blast!

Intro to Java and Variables and Types: Programming in Java course Lesson 0 and 1
By Howlin' Husky Math Games
Hello and welcome!
Are you math teacher and have been thrown into teaching a computer science course? Now you have NO IDEA where to start! Have you taught computer science, but want to try something else? Math and computer science are related, but are not the same!
I have your back. I've been teaching math and computer science, including APCSP, APCSA, and Data Structures for almost two decades. I also teach an introduction course. This is part of the course I made up for my intro students. I have a BS in computer science and know what students need to know.
This is part 0 ("computer people" start counting at 0, we'll learn why!) and part 1 of an introductory Programming in Java lesson. These lessons are meant to be done on the first few days; the idea is to get students doing cool stuff as fast as possible. With Java, that is NOT an easy task.
Topics:
Programming in Java 0: An Introduction to Java
How to start using Java- installing the compiler
General error types
HelloWorld project
Programming in Java 1: Variables and Types
How to declare variables and name them in Java
What are types?
Calculations and equations
Incrementing
Formatting output
All lessons will come with the following:
a pdf slideshow
A pacing guide with hints for teaching the section and common student
errors
an assignment, differentiated with three different levels!
an answer key in pdf form
an answer key in .java form
Depending on your style, you could go over Programming in Java 0 on day 1, then let students play around. Go over Programming in Java 1 the next day and give them the attached assignment. Or you could just give them the slides and assignment and let them play.
Let students explore and make mistakes. Let them talk to each other and discuss their approaches. Programming takes a lot of trial and error.
Great for asynchronous learning and homeschooling! Could be used as a self- taught lesson or go at your own pace! Everything for learning is included!
