I am not seeing why we want to do return vs. print. While it is true they have been using print a lot, It has a different use than what return does. Apples to oranges.
What I am going to do with my class is strip out all the print stuff because they already know that. Instead, I am going to concentrate on return. That cuts the lesson in half.
I am then going to add recursion to the lesson.
Then I am going to switch out the lab for a lab that has them writing recursive functions. This will challenge them to a better understanding of return. Since I also skipped lesson 2.06 they learn recursion before loops.
Discussed in #355
