Welcome Daniel! I'm not sure how many of the TOS community are looking at K-12 education. I can point you to some learning materials. This is a listing of learning activities:
http://foss2serve.org/index.php/Category:Learning_Activity You might want to look at the activities for CS Principles, CS1 and CS2. There are other activities that are aimed at a more introductory audience. I might also suggest contacting Rick Weinberg (@rickweinberg) and Francis Ann Squire (@FASquire) on Twitter as they both teach at the K-12 level and have some wonderful ideas for learning.
