Python Beginners I
Tuesday& Thursday 6:30 to 7:30 PM
Hello Parents and Students,
Today in class, we focused on building our Python skills by creating four mini-projects that used user
input and applied real-life math concepts through code.
Students worked on:
1. Area of a Rectangle – where users input the length and width, and the area was calculated using
multiplication.
2. Change Problem – where users entered the item cost and amount paid, and the program
calculated how much change to give back.
3. Currency Converter – where users entered an amount in dollars, and the code converted it to
another currency using a fixed exchange rate.
4. Minutes to Hours Converter – where users input a number of minutes, and the program
displayed how many full hours and remaining minutes that equals.
This class helped us practice:
Using input() to get values from users
Performing arithmetic operations
Creating and using variables
Writing clear and meaningful output using print()
Applying math in real-world problem solving through Python
📚 For homework, I would like the students to:
Create a mini project that converts inches to centimeters.
As always, you can send any questions to
[email protected] with "Mr. George” in
the subject line.
Regards,
Mr. George
