Lesson Plan: • Intro - There is a lone “Write the web” subheader at the top with no content beneath • #1 Preparation o typo “looks” should be “look” o the Thimble link has a typo • #2 Building Human Machines – may be useful to link to a Human machine example online. It is a hard one to describe in words! o “a styling instructions” should not have the “a” o last sentence is 1st paragraph seems runon-ish o #5 can drop the “that does something.” o #6 – it might be more clear for “Parts of the machine” to say “Group members” o #11 & #12 – instead of “performs” it may be more clear to use “mimics” o sentence introducing the last set of bullets has a typo “faciliutate” • #3 Discovering JavaScript o 1st sentence typo “intructions” o 2nd paragraph, 2nd sentence typo “heppen” o 2nd paragraph, 3rd sentence typo “Foer” o Suggested rewrite for: “Functions can use values attached to variables, as well as change those values.” Is “Functions can use values attached to variables, and can change those values.” o Omit “so” from intro video sentence • #4 Coding a Button & Alert o Remove “all” from 1st sentence and change “the button the page” to “the button on the page” o 7th paragraph typo “parentehses” • #5 Reflection o 1st bullet typo: “descrtibe” o 6th bullet typo: “ther”

Thimble Project:

“For example, if we wrote a function to describe a cat that expected certain characteritics like eye color or hair color, we could use variables and their values to describe or list the parts that make the whole.” • This paragraph has a typo “characteritics” and is also very confusing. Is the cat expected to have certain characteristics, or the function?’ ☺ • #3 Alert 4th “paragraph” has a typo “vairable” • #4 Javascript 3rd “paragraph” typo “button a function” should be “button to a function” • #5 change the story: 4th “paragraph” : “be sure to use single quotation marks are inside the story and which contain the story as a string.” There is something missing here but I’m not sure what it is. o The last paragraph in this section is missing a step I think. You need to click on the index.html and then click on the preview pane to test it, yes? The preview pane instructions are missing. • #7 mess with code – 2nd paragraph typo “thos” • #8 credit yo’self – 1st paragraph typo “sytling” • Ending paragraph should be “connection” instead of “connected”

The curriculum template might get a light overhaul soon to improve readability. In the meantime, please ship me any addition feedback here or via email.
