Python Programming 2 Unit 7: Under the Hood

The complete Unit 7, all 7 lessons

Guide students through the parts of Python that sit behind a working program. Students write modules, call libraries and a weather API, sort errors by when Python finds them and act out a made-up CPU. They also write classes such as a bank account and tests with unittest, then plan and test an app made of files with a partner.

Why Teachers Choose It

Students split code into files that work together

They write a game kit module, import it and call its functions with a dot, then plan an app with a file map, an API call and tests.

Students see what happens under the code

They sort errors by when Python finds them, act out a CPU that fetches, decodes and executes, and read a unittest report.

Print and digital

Every page is a print-ready PDF, and the Google Forms™ and Google Slides™ let you teach the same unit in Google Classroom™.

Every day fits a 45-minute class

Each day's plan is timed activity by activity against real reading and writing speeds.

FAQ

What's in the Unit 7 bundle?
All 7 lessons, each with slides, guided notes, exit tickets and answer keys, plus 16 activity sheets, 7 lab sheets in 4 lessons, a quiz in 6 lessons and the unit project. The Unit 7 Bonus folder adds a review, a unit test with a Form B retake, a pacing guide, a standards crosswalk and Vocabulary Bingo.
Can I buy single lessons or the whole course?
Yes. Each lesson sells on its own, and this unit is part of the complete Python Programming 2 course, which costs less than buying the eight units.
Is this AP Computer Science?
No. It is a full-year, non-AP second course in Python for grades 9 to 12. For AP, see our AP Computer Science A and AP CSP courses.
How is it delivered?
Instant download right after checkout: PowerPoint and Word files you can edit, print-ready PDFs, and links that copy the Google Forms™ and Google Slides™ into your Drive.
Which standards does it cover?
Written for Florida's Intermediate Programming course (9007220). Each lesson's skills map and the unit's standards crosswalk show which standards it teaches.
Do students need computers?
Yes, on lab days. The labs and quiz tasks run online in CodeGrove, our in-browser code lab, so each student needs a computer or tablet. CodeGrove needs no account or install.
