I hope to be teaching a summer week long class in MW at our local college.  So far only four people have signed up so I am not sure it will be a go!  That makes me sad!  But if it is a go what would be the things you think would be most important / fun / exciting to teach!  
 
I have so many ideas now they are starting to spin and I need to pull it all together.
 
I assume the kids are on the bright side to sign up for a programming class, and are probably smarter than I am!  :)I don't want to get in their way.
 
I don't want to start with  fd , bk etc.  I want to start with procedures that make polygons and I have quite a few great ideas from this list and the web page. Thanks All!
 
I want to start with repeat # [fd :side rt #]  and use buttons and sliders from the beginning.
Not with fd 50 rt 90, fd 50 rt 90, fd 50 rt 90, fd 50 rt 90
 
I want to go as fast and as far as I can. I hope by the end of the week to have the kids making games of some sort.  
 
Thanks for all your ideas, keep your fingers crossed enough kids sign up and if they do I hope you will be in town the week of June 21st to the 26th! :) I may have questions I will not know the answers to.
 
Thanks again, I have learned a lot.  Any more ideas( your favorite MW idea) before my last organization will be greatly appreciated.
 
                     Jean
