> I’ve been tasked to teach some HS students, about to enter university, who might be somewhat at risk. I was going to use MakeCode Arcade, and am looking for some resources. The AP CS Principles Course is too CS-specific, I think, and it only uses the Arcade hardware sporadically (because it’s emphasis really is on CS). Now I’m worried that I’ve really picked the wrong platform, and I should go with something like Snap! or Scratch or the like. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

If you’re looking for something else, then just let us know what you need and we can try to point you to other resources.

So glad to hear that you’re teaching, @Dreadmask197 ! We always need good CS instructors to inspire more kids.
