Hi Gary,

We are developing a course in Squeak for absolute beginners / junior high / 
high school students here at the Hawthorne Center for Innovation in the L.A. 
Area. We just got the 1st 5 lessons onto a Live CD. Let's connect up.

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?
