** Mark...
Some thoughts... start with BASIC GR, lores graphics, introduce
colors, points, lines randomn, counters, for...next, on...then, goto etc.
Move to HGR1, HGR2. Focus on creating simulations or problem solving; ie...
create a GR based addition D/P for primary grades or such. After this intro
or 5-6 weeks, move to HyperStudio and build on the ideas / models you've
introduced.
