Python 101 lessons; problem with code builder

When I start a challenge in Python 101 and press "c", the code builder shows the instructions and the starting code, if there is one related to the exercise. The problem comes when I close that window and open it a second time, the "makecode" window with the big green "New project" button loads instead of the instructions and starting code. 

I did try speaking to the npc, clearing the cach, or resetting  but it didn't solve the issue

  Hey there,

  Sorry to hear you are running into some issues with Python 101 worlds.

  Is it only those worlds giving issues or do you have Code Builder issues in other worlds too? 

  If you are willing, we can make a ticket for you and if you could send us a video reproduction of the issue there that would be great.

  Let us know!

  Hello Danny, 

  I'm facing the same issue. Here is a video:

  Basically, what happens in my case, is, that as soon as I start Makecode a second time after an activity prompt, it leaves and enters the main menu. You can finish the activity, but the Makecode challenge doesn't work correctly. 

  Also, when I happen to code in Minecraft Makecode, a visual glitch happens, where the first lines cut into each other. This only happens when I go into Minecraft MakeCode on some of the devices.

  I have the same problem in all of the Minecraft Make Code Python 101 Lessons.

  Hey there Matt,

  Sorry to hear you are running into this too. Some of our team believes these are recorded Python bugs waiting to be patched out but I am checking with other parts of the team as well to confirm.

  As this is a problem that makes Python 101 Lessons unusable, I have stopped using Minecraft to teach Python in my classroom.
