Bootstrap

Bootstrap is an awesome free, online curriculum that teaches game design through Algebra.  Here’s your chance to answer that question “When am I ever going to use this?” AND give your kid some real-world skills in programming.  Bootstrap has two classes with about 10 lessons each (about 20-25 hours of instruction per class).  There are also teacher guides, supplemental material and workbooks all available for free download.  Students design and program a video game using functions, geometry, coordinate planes and all that good algebra stuff.  Great for anyone learning algebra or later and FREE!
