Day 1: Programming Learning for Kids
Day 1: Introduction to programming and basic concepts like variables and loops
Learning Material:
- Video: Watch a short introductory video that explains what programming is, why it is important, and what kind of things you can create with it. Here is an example video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHLPoW0D8Lw
- Article: Read an article that explains the basic concepts of programming, such as variables, loops, and conditional statements. Here is an example article: https://www.codecademy.com/articles/what-is-programming
- Interactive Tutorial: Try an interactive tutorial that walks you through writing your first program. This tutorial should cover the basics of programming and teach you how to create simple programs using Python. Here is an example tutorial: https://www.learnpython.org/en/Hello%2C_World%21
Exercise:
- Write your first program: Write a simple program that prints “Hello, world!” to the console. This is a classic first program that every programmer writes. Use Python to write the program. If you need help, refer to the tutorial from step 3 above.
- Variables: Declare and assign values to two variables in Python, and then print out the values of the variables to the console. Make sure to use different data types for the variables (e.g. integer, string).
- Loops: Write a for loop in Python that prints out the numbers from 1 to 10. Then, write a while loop that does the same thing.
- Conditional Statements: Write a program that asks the user to enter a number, and then prints “positive” if the number is greater than 0, “negative” if the number is less than 0, and “zero” if the number is equal to 0. Use an if/else statement to accomplish this.
These exercises are designed to reinforce the concepts learned in the learning material. They should be challenging but not overwhelming and provide the student with the opportunity to practice writing code on their own.
