Sometimes it's easier to store data in a file rather than include it in the code. I created this resource as an introduction to file input and output in Turtle. I've included 4 assessments, each increasing in difficulty so you can decide whether to use them for DI or just select the appropriate level for your class.

Duration: Two 75-minute periods.

This package includes:

✔ A Package Description

✔ Answer Key

✔ 10 PowerPoints⭐ + Resource Notes

✔ 14-Page Student Handout + 1 Assessment

✔ 4 Rubrics

◆ 4 Alternate with a KICA* marking scheme
