Re: Programming Curriculum in Middle School

We do HTML and CSS in 7th grade (though as stated these are not
programming languages), and an intro to Processing in 8th grade- this is
an MIT lab IDE. We continue with Processing in the US.

For more information try: www.processing.org

Also, my colleague Michael Bernstein did a workshop at NEIT this year:
