lists and dictionaries and tuples OH MY! (week 6)

Every student in programming 1 has successfully demonstrated the standard of using features and systems of a modern programming language!  We demonstrated this with creating a dice-roll simulator.  Because we finished a day early, Friday we did an enrichment activity where we started creating a text adventure game using all of the concepts we have learned up to this point!  I think the kids would agree for as challenging as it was, they were having a lot of fun working through this project.

The next standard we will work towards is making a program to read and write to an external file.  Before we work on this assessment, we will do some work with lists, dictionaries, and tuples, as they are what we will be reading and writing from for the assessment.  These kids have really been working hard, and have demonstrated a lot of growth this term, and I am really proud of them as they are taking a class that is very difficult and intimidating for some to sign up for.
