This is a brief list of possible ideas for the HFOSS Curriculum project, where the students team up and attempt to create and educational game for students grade 4 and under using an XO laptop.

Interesting units:

Algebraic thinking with variables, geometry, and data representation.

Dull units:

Grammar, writing, anything English.

Mechanic Ideas:

• (Algebra) Take buckets (variables) from equations, fill them to the right amount, and return them to the equation to make the equation true.
• (Data) Shoot a slingshot arrows at apples that the ducks who are at the correct spot on the graph
• (Geometry) Control a snake avoiding obstacles. Pause time to make turns at specific angles. Forming shapes, parallel lines, or perpendicular lines earns points.
