[Edu-sig] python for kids...

[Horst JENS]

sorry for being late... just discovered the Edu-sig list today.

I want to add that Gregor Lindl, the author of the German book "Python
für Kids" has improved the turtle module to a module called "xturtle".

xturtle was presented at the Europython 2006 but sadly come too late to
be included into Python 2.5. It is well worth a look and there is a
homepage in English from the author about it:
http://www.rg16.asn-wien.ac.at/~python/xturtle/index.html

also want to add that i teach Python to kids and made some videos about
Easygui:
http://www.showmedo.com/videos/series?name=pythonJensFromKidsSeries

The videos are in German but have English subtitles. I would love to
work together with other teachers to make more videos. For fun, mostly,
and also to show that teaching PYthon to kids is a good idea.

Now i happy dive into "Snake-Wrangler" :-)
