“So incredibly important to start our youngest learners on a path to coding literacy - this program is engaging and effective.” ~ Eileen H.
Welcome to Turtle Tuesdays!
Turtle Tuesdays offers fun programming challenges for Logo and (sometimes) Pro-Bot, InO-Bot, and Kinderlogo users. These challenges are also posted every Tuesday on Facebook and Instagram. All the challenges are archived here, with links and solutions in the sidebar.
Easier designs await younger learners, while older students can tackle more difficult challenges. All students will enjoy creating code that makes their project special to them as they explore new commands and ways to use them. Encourage students to work collaboratively on projects.
Turtle Tuesdays Challenges for December 2024
This month features designs that you can draw with Kinderlogo, as well as with Logo, and often Pro-Bot and InO-Bot!
Kinderlogo runs on Macs, PCs, and Chromebooks, as well as tablets (iPads and Kindles) connected to an external wireless (Bluetooth) keyboard.
Try it for free for 30 days.
Challenge No. 116 - December 17, 2024
for Kinderlogo, Logo, Pro-Bot, and InO-Bot users
Can you write your name in Logo? (or any other name you choose)
You can draw this design in Kinderlogo at Level 3 using these new commands:
U (raises the turtle’s pen so it can’t draw) and D (puts the turtle’s pen back down)
With Pro-Bot and InO-Bot, you can manually raise and lower the pen, or reposition the bot.
Challenge No. 115 - December 10, 2024
for Kinderlogo, Logo, Pro-Bot, and InO-Bot users
Will you see a scooter under the tree?
You can draw this design in Kinderlogo at Level 2 using these new commands:
C (draws a circle with a radius of 40 turtle steps), O (turns the turtle the opposite way, RT 180)
Challenge No. 114 - December 3, 2024
for Kinderlogo, Logo, Pro-Bot, and InO-Bot users
Create a heart-felt design for the holidays!
You can draw this design in Kinderlogo at Level 1. The only commands you need are these:
F (20 turtle steps), R (30 degree turn to the right), L (30 degree turn to the left)
and perhaps these: X (undo last command), N (new picture)
