Below is a 51 video tutorial series on Python that I made for my students about 4-5 years ago. It was a flipped classroom thing I did and I took it really slow

  Thanks for sharing! I'm curious about your approach. I expected that, as you're targeting kids, you'd start with something like 'hello world' before going into the distinction between high-level languages and assembly. Do most of the kids you teach understand and recall the things you mention in the introductory/foundational videos? (I have almost no experience teaching kids to code.)

    The introductory video were linked to the curriculum the department was following and so I put things in the same order to match what was being done. When I normally teach it I skip to the hello world portions first and then later come back to those first 3-4 videos. The programming videos themselves go, in my opinion, quite slowly, which I found helped many kids.
