About the project

The project advocates the use of Python as a word-processor for telling stories, each chapter of which focuses on a different school curriculum subject, but also adds a Python coding element, such as addition, times tables, drawing, or music. It therefore becomes a creative, cross curricular coding project:


All of the Python coding on this site was created or modified by Beth Mead, currently a Year 7 pupil at a south London school (aged 12 years) as are all the animal characters in the stories.

Maisy (Beth's dog)


Malika (Beth's Aunty Justine's cat)


The pedagogy on which this is based is Constructionism
