We are still working on understanding more complex math concepts, but she understands general addition, multiplication and subtraction. Division has been a little harder.
But, I would say she generally understands how to process “code” written for the computer and write some of her own, really simple applications (with some heavy help from dad).
I’m thinking of sticking with this for a couple years, and then we are going to move to a small LMC that I wrote in C some time ago.
I’ve also thought about using FORTH, but I am probably getting ahead of myself a bit.
I am using this to teach my 4 year old programming and general understanding of how computers process information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WDR_paper_computer
