BOOK 2: Block Coding Preview

Learn visual programming through decision-making on the court

What You'll Learn

🎯 Block Coding Concepts

  • Decision blocks (if/then logic)
  • Conditional statements
  • Event-driven programming
  • Sequential thinking

🏀 Basketball Skills

  • Reading the defense
  • Crossover dribble technique
  • Creating space
  • Decision-making under pressure

📋 Example Exercise Structure

Students will use visual blocks to program a player's response to different defensive situations. The exercise teaches:

[IF] Defender is on left side
→ [THEN] Execute crossover to right
[ELSE]
→ [THEN] Continue current direction

* Full exercise includes interactive blocks, visual feedback, and progressive challenges

BOOK 3: Introduction to Python

Transition from blocks to text-based coding through pattern recognition

What You'll Learn

🐍 Python Fundamentals

  • Basic syntax and structure
  • Variables and data types
  • Loops and patterns
  • Functions and sequences

🏀 Basketball Skills

  • In & out dribble move
  • Pattern recognition
  • Timing and rhythm
  • Breaking patterns effectively

📋 Example Exercise Structure

Students will write Python code to create dribble patterns. The exercise introduces:

# Create a dribble pattern
pattern = ["in", "out", "in", "out"]
for move in pattern:
  execute_dribble(move)
# Break pattern at key moment
break_pattern()

* Full exercise includes syntax practice, pattern building, and interactive coding challenges

Real Student Impact

Every time a student finishes a story moment and completes a challenge, we capture the kind of outcome schools and families care about: confidence, language, and follow-through.

From quitting to confident

Grades 3–5

A student who used to shut down during math finished the story, then said, “Let me try one more time.” After three quick tries, they completed the challenge and started explaining the steps out loud like a coach.
