It might be useful to note that Kung Fu Canvas at least is a pretty K-12 directed course. I had to do fairly heavy editing to offer it to my higher ed professors. I'm not sure about the other one though.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction though, despite the editing, it's saved me a ton of work!
