Python Turtle (named Turtle)
Includes TUR-01 Turtle Steps — named Turtle
Build confidence with a named Python Turtle by turning movement instructions into simple drawings. Students will: - create and control a named Turtle object - combine movement instructions in the correct sequence - store useful drawing values in variables Inside: guided Turtle examples, short checks and practical coding tasks. Series: Python Turtle (named Turtle), part 1 of 6.
WorksheetSeries · 6 partsPython Turtle (direct functions)
Includes TUR-01 Turtle Steps — direct functions
Build confidence with Python Turtle by turning movement instructions into simple drawings. Students will: - use forward movement and turns to control a Turtle - combine instructions in the correct sequence - store useful drawing values in variables Inside: guided Turtle examples, short checks and practical coding tasks. Series: Python Turtle (direct functions), part 1 of 6.
WorksheetSeries · 2 partsH446 2.2.1 · Programming techniques
Includes OCR H446 2.2.1 Variable scope
Two variables can share a name and still be separate storage, which is where H446 2.2.1 scope questions usually turn. Using a live-stream overlay, this worksheet has students read names from the inside out, predict shadowing without running the code, then replace global state with an explicit parameter and return interface. Students will: - identify which local and global bindings are accessible at a given point - predict the output of a program where a local name shadows a global one - explain the difference between a global and a local variable of the same name - refactor a function to receive state as parameters and return the updated value - explain drawbacks of relying heavily on global variables in a larger program Inside: 6 explanation cells, 1 multiple-choice question, 1 fill-in-the-blanks cell, 2 written answers and 2 Python tasks. 15 marks, about 20 to 30 minutes. Series: H446 2.2.1 · Programming techniques, part 5 of 14.
WorksheetOCR H446 1.4.1 Primitive data types and casting
Part 1 · H446 1.4.1 · Data types
OCR H446 1.4.1 asks students to choose a primitive data type from what a value represents and what the program does with it, not from how the value looks. Set in a music-event booking system, this worksheet builds that two-question method and then has students trace what casting really does to a value, including in running Python. Students will: - choose an OCR primitive type from a value's purpose and the operations needed - justify storing a fixed-format identifier as a string rather than an integer - trace the effect of a cast, including the loss of a fractional part - complete a Python function that casts supplied text, calculates a total and returns a set sentence - recall the type and casting definitions in a closed-book check Inside: 10 explanation cells, 2 multiple-choice questions, 2 fill-in-the-blanks cells, 1 written answer and 2 Python tasks. 17 marks, about 40 to 50 minutes. Series: H446 1.4.1 · Data types, part 1 of 11.
Worksheet1CP2-CT-1.3 First programs, variables and constants
Part 3 · 1CP2-CT-1 · Programming foundations
The first Python worksheet of the course, turning an informal algorithm into working code. Students will: - predict the exact output order of a short program - store values in named variables and read them back - choose between a variable and a constant, and name each conventionally - follow how a value changes as a program runs - write a short program of their own and explain an assignment statement Inside: 9 explanation cells, 2 multiple-choice questions, 3 Python tasks, 2 fill-in-the-blanks cells and 2 written answers. 18 marks, about 45 minutes. Series: 1CP2-CT-1 · Programming foundations, part 3 of 7.
WorksheetJ277 2.2.1 Variables, constants, input and output
Part 1 · J277 2.2.1-2.2.2 · Programming fundamentals
The first programming worksheet: storing values, reading input and producing output. Students will: - assign values to variables and use them later - explain the difference between a variable and a constant - read input and produce readable output - use naming that communicates intent - write a short program from a stated requirement Inside: 5 explanation cells, 3 runnable Python tasks, 2 multiple-choice questions, 1 fill-in-the-blanks cell and 2 written answers. 15 marks, about 45 minutes. Series: J277 2.2.1-2.2.2 · Programming fundamentals, part 1 of 7.
