“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. Encourage students to work collaboratively on projects.
If you don’t already have Logo, get the 14-day Free Trial and start coding!
Get an InO-Bot robot for free with a 3-year Logo Household License. Just $49.95 (plus S&H) for years of coding fun!
InO-Bot follows your Logo commands, just like the original floor turtle.
Turtle Tuesdays Challenges for May 2026
Let’s Build Some Towers!
All challenges can be done using either Logo or the new (free!) Logo Blocks coding environment.
Read more about Logo Blocks here, with tutorials and activities at each of 3 levels.
Go to Logo Blocks here: logoblocks.terrapinlogo.com
When designing a building block for your tower, try to start and end the shape in the same place.
That makes it easier to use the shape in different places on the screen.
Challenge No. 176 - May 12, 2026
For Logo Blocks (Intermediate Mode), Logo, Pro-Bot, and *InO-Bot users.
Can you build a tower of triangles?
How many triangles do you see in this image? More than you might imagine! (Did you count 13?)
You could try to build this tower with playing cards. That takes lots of patience!
You could draw individual triangles in three rows, but there is a more efficient way to do it.
Challenge No. 175 - May 5, 2026
For Logo Blocks (Intermediate and Advanced Modes) and Logo users
Can you build this tower of colorful straws? (In Logo, anything is possible!)
