Unit 1: Foundations of Python & Turtle Graphics (Lessons 1-4):

Students begin their coding journey by learning Python basics and exploring the Turtle graphics library. They create shapes, control movement, and use loops to draw polygons and patterns. This unit builds a strong foundation in both programming and visual design.

Unit 2: Creative Coding & Pattern Design (Lessons 5-8):

Students expand their skills by creating colorful patterns, spirals, and artistic scenes. They combine math, randomness, and loops to generate unique visual designs. This unit emphasizes creativity while reinforcing core coding concepts.

Unit 3: Advanced Designs & Scene Building (Lessons 9-11):

Students use nested loops and structured thinking to build more complex and detailed designs. They create layered scenes like pyramids and spider webs with precision. This unit develops efficiency, problem-solving, and advanced pattern creation.

Unit 4: Project Development & Interactivity (Lessons 12-16):

Students begin building larger projects while learning to organize code using functions. They add interactivity through keyboard, mouse input, and conditional logic. This unit introduces real-world programming skills and dynamic user experiences.

Unit 5: Data Structures, Animation & Game Mechanics (Lessons 17-22):

Students explore lists, loops, and conditionals to manage data and create animations. They build interactive programs with movement, collisions, and user control. This unit bridges the gap between simple programs and full game development.

Unit 6: Game Design & Capstone Project (Lessons 23-26):

Students design and build complete games, including racing, catching, and the classic Snake game. They combine all previously learned concepts to create engaging, fully playable experiences. This final unit showcases their skills through polished, project-based learning.
