A complete classroom resource for teaching Python 2D lists through 10 structured activities. Students begin by identifying rows, columns and indexes before progressing to nested loops, grid searching, updating cells, validation and small grid-based projects.
The activities use practical themes including cinema seating, school menus, weather data, treasure maps, pixel art and a final treasure grid game. Each task includes 1 chilli, 2 chillies and 3 chillies challenges so students can work at an appropriate level while using the same starter code.
The teacher presentation includes clear explanations, teaching notes, common misconceptions, numbered code examples and separate sample answers. Longer programs are split across extra slides so the code remains readable. A one-page 2D lists scaffold explains the main syntax and patterns students need throughout the course.
Included:
- Teacher PowerPoint with numbered code
- 10 student activity handouts
- 10 Python starter files
- Separate Python answer files
- 1 chilli, 2 chillies and 3 chillies solutions
- One-page 2D lists scaffolding sheet
- Python Code Lab links
Suitable for:
Key Stage 3, GCSE Computer Science and beginner Python learners who already understand simple lists, selection and loops.
