</div>
<div style="font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Make sure you download the version Alice you want...I teach at a private school and don't follow Common Core, so I'm not sure about the new version of Alice with Core.</div>
<div><br>
<div style="font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Look at the pull down menu Teaching. You can download all sorts of lessons And and if you go to: </div>
<div style="font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> http://www.aliceprogramming.net/materials.html you can get syllabi and tests, etc.</div>

</span><font color="black" size="2" face="Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">I don't have a curriculum for Alice 3 (maybe others on this list will be able to help you). But there is LOTS of curriculum out there for Alice 2.x such as textbooks, powerpoints, program suggestions, lessons, and even quizzes and tests. However, Alice 2. is an entirely different program. It is not an older version of Alice than Alice 3. I have only used Alice 2.x and have been very happy with it...If you choose to switch your plans I could certainly lead you to many places to get you up and running very quickly.

<div class="MsoNormal">Hello all:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal"> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">I have jumped into the deep end. I am a new teacher, transitioning from a job in the corporate world.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">I am about to start teaching math and computer science. I was just hired about a week and a half ago.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">Classes start tomorrow, and I don’t have a curriculum for the Intro to CS course I am teaching.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal"> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">I am planning to use ALICE3 and the “Learning Java Through ALICE 3 text book”.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">The purpose of the class is to introduce students to programming and Java, with the hopes they will go on to the AP Java class next year. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal"> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">I am thinking it would be helpful if I had a curriculum to start with. One written specifically for ALICE3 would be best but almost anything would be better than “what I don’t have” at this point.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">Can anyone assist?</div>
