Well, Yes . . .
What is not there is a general discussion as to HOW one teaches that
material; mainly because the focus is
on Livecode rather than pedagogical and conceptual concerns.

Hi
My wife is a teacher and is considering Live Code in a new Computing lesson at
Primary level or more senior students at Special schools (she actually teaches
at a Special school where the academic level may be equivalent to primary).
Does anyone have any references to using Live Code in primary schools? Ideally
English as they have a specific curriculum, but others if not. The main
interest is what sort of programs can be easily implemented at this level,
examples or getting started guides.
This is very much early days yet but the interest is there, so any information
would be appreciated
Cheers
Steve

Do you mean that your wife wants to teach her pupils to program,
or that she wishes to use Livecode to write programs to use with her children?
Obviously what happens next in our conversation will depend to a very large
extent on your answer :)
I am an EFL teacher of some 25 year's standing who has taught EFL at all
l;evels from Primary to University,
and, perhaps more to the point, have developed many programs for use with
Primary children, and taught
Primary children elementary programming.
So . . . ask away.

P.S. What do you mean by "special" in "Special Schools"? If the answer is
"physically handicapped" or
"societally maladjusted" I can probably help you rather better than "mentally
handicapped"
