Books, E-books & Zines
I've written two books for general consumption; both are accompanied by a website, free downloadables, and lesson plans. On this page I also list e-books and zines which are freely downloadable.
Computer Science for Kids: A Storytelling Approach
Aligned for grades 6-8, this textbook is for sale on Amazon and at a bookstore near you. It's a rethinking of the Middle School Computer Science curriculum and includes a website and GitHub code in a project-based, storytelling-infused format. Watch for the 'hidden curriculum' featuring sustainability!
