2	Lesson 1	Hello, World	N/A	Printing Calculations	Intro to Java language	Overview of curriculum	Explanation of JShell	Printing "Hello World"	Numeric variables/say what Strings are	Operators	Results vs. Side effects	Have them figure out what % does
3	Lesson 2	Tough decisions	Difference between int and double	Complex grade calculator (determine A-F)	Boolean logic/operators	Comparison operators	The almighty if statement	Or else	Chaining else-if's	A case for switches (and a case against)	Pseudocode (not pseudoscience)	Simple grade calculator (Pass/Fail)
4	Lesson 3	Letting your program flow	Print out if number is even or odd	Fizzbuzz (both while and for loops)	While loops	Not getting stuck in an infinite loop	Print out 1-10 with while loop	Do-While loop	For loop	Print out 1-10 with for loop	Print out even numbers (both with skipping and with if statements)
5	Lesson 4	A method to the madness	Sum all odd numbers below 1000	Print prime numbers (write isPrime(int i) method)	Write once, use many times	Methods are a bit like operators-side effects and results	Write void method (only has side-effects)	Method to print out 1-10	Calling methods	Returning a value	Taking a single parameter	Write method to square a number	isEven(int) method	More than one parameter- exponent method	What happens when you define more than one method with the same name (different parameter lists)- overloading
6	Lesson 5	Giving your program some class	Find angle between hands on clock	Person/House project	Grouping variables together, instantiating group	Method to process the "grouped" variables	Moving methods inside the group (adding a class method)	Blueprint analogy	Reference vs value types	Accessibility modifiers	Composition (putting one class inside of another)	Mutability vs immutibility, side-effects
7	Lesson 6	Strings and yarn (and Javadoc)	Create a class for something	Simple text based calculator	Explain ASCII/ char type	Operations on Strings have no side effects	Use .equals() to compare Strings	Switch statements don't work	Converting Strings to numbers (and the other way)	Go through String methods	Find earliest letter in alphabet
8	Lesson 7	An array of... stuff	Does a String contain a letter	Sequential search	Arrays are reference types	Arrays of objects hold references	Arrays of primitives hold the value itself	Looping through an array/ changing values	Foreach loop and limitations

10	Lesson 9	Static electricity	Open eclipse and create project	Singleton pattern	Normal fields aren't shared between instances	Creating objects with static fields	Static methods can't access non-static fields	Non-static methods can access static fields	Calling static vs. non-static methods	Why static (can be) evil	How to correctly use static fields
11	Lesson 10	Say it to my interface	Count how many instances of an object there are	Implement the Iterable interface to encapsulate an array	Why they are useful (reference an object by functionality)	Implementing an interface	Referencing an object by its interface	Implementing multiple interfaces	Accepting interfaces as parameters	Casting from an interface	Static methods	Different types of interfaces	(If there's time) Overview of some common interfaces
12	Lesson 11	A large inheritance	Print out all numbers in an Iterator<Double>	Probably a Person or Animal inheritance chain	Abstract classes are like interfaces, but they can have both kinds of methods	You can only extend one class (diamond inheritance problem)	You can also extend non-abstract classes	A subclass can be treated like its superclass	Casting and conversion	The Object class	Overriding methods	Calling super methods and constructors	Methods that accept a supertype	The instanceof operator	Arrays and inheritance
13	Lesson 12	Exceptional times call for Exceptions			The Exception class	Throwing (checked) exceptions (also adding throws declaration)	Catching exceptions	Pros/cons of throwing exceptions	Writing your own exception	Unchecked exceptions/ RuntimeException	Catching multiple exceptions/ multiple catch statements	Exceptions and inheritance	Common Exceptions

25		Notes:
26		Lesson 11 may take longer than planned
27		Should there be homework?
28		Fit in reading javadoc somewhere
