Lesson 8

Learning Goal: Students will be able to use Python math operators to calculate the area of different shapes.

Students will know how to:

• Use basic math operators to add, subtract, multiply, and divide

• Use variables to store integer and float values

• Store the results of a mathematical formula in a variable

• Use a variable display tool to display a variable whose value changes as your program runs

• Use an event to make the program interactive

Today I will…

• use math symbols to make calculations in a program.

• store a mathematical formula in a variable.

• combine strings and integer variables.

• use descriptive variables to name objects.
