Course Title:
Geek Squad: Young Python Programmers Level 2
Offered by: Bright Kids Virtual Primary School – After-School Club Program
Course Overview:
Geek Squad: Young Python Programmers Level 2 is a dynamic 6-week coding course designed for children aged 9 years and above. Offered by Bright Kids Virtual Primary School’s After-School Club Program, this program introduces young learners to Python — one of the world’s most widely used and powerful programming languages.
Students begin by installing Python and exploring the Python IDLE environment. They’ll learn about different types of errors and understand how to use the print function, F-strings, and comments effectively. Learners will work with variables, explore number types, and master mathematical operations using PEMDAS and logical operators in Python.
The course covers key programming concepts such as strings, lists, if statements for decision-making, and loops for repeating instructions. Students will unleash their creativity by creating their own turtle, doodling shapes, and learning how to write reusable code for smarter programs.
Special Hour of Code sessions will give students real-world coding practice — writing, testing, and fixing their own Python programs. By the end of the course, students will also explore different Python IDLEs, preparing them for more advanced coding adventures ahead.
