In either one, or both, look at the syllabus to get an idea of the order of things.

The lectures for this class were not recoded. But, you can use the videos here to see some examples:

Match them up by the topics.

For example, week 2 is conditionals and loops. When you look at the book they list you should find that conditionals are if then else statments. Well, Bucky's videos 20 to 26 cover those topics.
