Learning basic Android

So for one of my courses, my final project is to come up with something that will teach people around middle school and up proper usage of grammar (not just teaching people definitions). There's a really easy way out of the project that involves making a Choose Your Own Adventure book, and I could easily do that. However, I'm "that guy". I have an idea that revolves around presenting a really basic Android app. The gist of the project isn't necessarily to have a finished product, but to be able to have a formula that shows you can teach someone about the usage of grammar.

I'll probably be able to enlist some help from my friends from my old college who are here at my current one in terms of getting some more of the advanced things processed, but they're gonna be loaded with their own projects and tests to study for. I know I'm going to need Eclipse, and I have a bit of reading material I "acquired" through sources concerning Javascript, CSS, and general Android dickery. Am I going to need anything else? I'm not even looking to pump out a 100% completed app from this, just want to take an opportunity to mix something I enjoy with helping my major.

I think you've listed all the necessities, unless you want guidance getting started you seem to be on the right path.

You'll need to grab the Android SDK: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

...and that's about it. Android Programs are written in Java, so if you know java, you're golden.
