I am planning an introductory course in Smalltalk for high school students. This will be starting from scratch; no previous programming experience required. The goal is to be able to create self-made personal software.

To this end I have been working through The Laser Game Tutorial and Squeak by Example. Neither seem right for beginners.

Can anyone recommend any other books or teaching materials? Maybe a successful syllabus?

I also highly recommend "Learning programming with robots" http://scg.unibe.ch/wiki/botsinc/
