These pebls include the slides and sample code for PD. It will be updated daily.
- Day 1: Introduction to p5.js
- Day 2: Color and Variables
- Day 3: Conditional Logic
- Day 4: Drawing Apps
This pebl includes some suggestions for classroom practices. It is by no means exhaustive and should be used to find practices that you think will be effective in your classroom.
The curriculum and worksheets are built using the Peblio platform. Peblio pages contain executable code, text, slides, videos and more. They are useful for creating and sharing programming worksheets and documenting programming projects. See this guide for detailed instructions.
The coding train is am amazing resource for p5 instructional videos. Dan Shiffman is amazing and you can learn anything from his channel.
These projects help you get up and running with p5 very quickly. They include instructions, videos and sample code. You can create the projects in the Peblio workspace as you watch these videos. They are not classroom resources, but resources to help you build your comfort level with p5.
This hour of code activity introduces drawing with p5 and system variables mouseX and mouseY. If you change the sequence and teach colors after shapes followed by system variables, this is a great project option.
These resources are based on the Introduction to Computational Media curriculum from CS4ALL which can be found here
