In 2018 we ran a study with a group of schools and developed materials for 10 weeks including starters, lesson plans, activities etc. Feedback from teachers was that each “week” could take several lessons. Although designed for Year 8 and 9 with a little programming experience already, it may be that these are suitable for older students too.
This time we introduced Turtles later, but these lessons are popular with students and teachers so could be introduced earlier.
