Racket / [B]SL / HTDP in a workshop context

Dear Racket community,

I'm wondering whether any guidelines / methodology exist out there on
using Racket and/or the student languages as a learning environment in a
workshop context (specifically aimed at introducing non-programmers to
programming and problem solving in a HTDP spirit).

The idea of such a hypothetical workshop is to have two or three
sessions with a small group (5-7 participants), and to reach a point in
the end where they are comfortable with reasoning about the how a
program evaluates and how to use functions to encapsulate simple
problems and solutions, possibly in this 5-step process:

Is this too ambitious plan at all? Does it require _way_ more time or is
it doable?

Thank you for any thoughts,
