I have been puttering with MicroWorlds for a few years and am pleased 
to have run across your forum today as I look for Logo resources.

My current math class is a group of 6th graders doing 7th grade 
curriculum.  When the school increased our math block time, I added 
in Logo programming as an enrichment project.  We've been working 
through the geometry vocabulary from the MicroWorlds help website 
with some small challenge projects as application.  It is great fun 
seeing the problem solving and idea sharing going on--the kids 
radiate happiness as they work.

Where I want to go with them is the sort of game challenges I see 
posted in your discussion, such as the pick up stick style problem 
posed by the grandfather in one message.  I've been stuck finding 
curriculum resources to help me get there.  I need some help getting 
from the basic level of programming I know to the more advanced, math 
embedded projects my kids are itching to try.

Is there any kind of curriculum guide for such projects published (in 
print or online) for MicroWorlds?  I found a middle school book for 
Terrapin Logo but the commands are different enough that adapting is 
a chore.

Any suggestions the forum can offer are appreciated.  And, if such a 
guide doesn't exist some of your messages read like you could write 
one.  Thanks!
