CS Curriculum -- PLEASE HELP!

1

Code.org

I've been doing this for several years. If it is a full year course I would start with code.org Computer Science Principals (CSP) it is FREE and it is very good. Some of the colaborative lessons are a bit contrived but it works. As others have said, there is free PD available and they used to offer a summer in service. I've used it extensively over the past few years. The CS Fundamentals is a good course for a half year and I do exactly that for my half year CS students (lots of freshman) and it paces things in little steps. Carnegie Melon also has a more extensive programming centric course https://academy.cs.cmu.edu that I like. My CS kids are doing it now because we ran out of things in the CSP course (no AP option at my school) You definitely don't have to build things from scratch. There are so many resources out there right now.
