alice-teacher suggestions for teching Alice to grade 8 students

[Sonya Bahri]

I am planning to introduce Alice programming to my Grade 8 students (13-14 Year old). Since I am teaching Alice for the first time, I wanted advice on which version to teach and where will I find lesson plans for beginning my lessons keeping in mind the age group? I was thinking of Story Telling Alice, what do you suggest?

Thanks

I find the tutorials created by Susan Rodger and Alice Team at Duke
University and posted under the Creative Commons license at
http://www.cs.duke.edu/csed/alice09/tutorials.php very useful indeed.
I was wondering whether a similar collection of tutorials exists for
Storytelling Alice or whether it would be worthwhile adapting the
Alice tutorials for Storytelling Alice.

I realise that Alice 3.0 is supposed to make Storytelling Alice
redundant, by offering the same kind of high-level methods useful for
programming stories, but also for Alice 3.0 I have not been able to
find a similar collection of tutorials.
