Reflection #6; Logo; Crossword Puzzle due today!

Hand in your crossword puzzle for a grade - make sure your name is on it!

Today we will begin with checking the Logo handout that I gave you yesterday.  This will not be for a grade, but it is important that we check to make sure that you did these correctly.  Again, you should have the opposite turn (for a RT the opposite turn would be LT, and vice versa); then to find the angle of the turn you need to subtract the angle listed from 360.


A couple of additional and important pieces of information are as follows:  the sum of the interior angles of a triangle equal 180 degrees, and the sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral equal 360 degrees. This is important to know as you create your "Total Turtle Trip" in drawing your shape!
The next handout will be your assignment, which you will work on today and Monday in class (you may work with the people sitting near you - but no moving seats).  In this handout, you will be given several shapes in which you must give Logo instructions on how to draw the shape.  If you want to open and use Logo on your computer to help you draw the shapes that is perfectly OK! 

On the handout that I will give you in class, we will go through #1 and #7 as a class.  Your assignment will be to complete the instructions for shapes #3, #5, #6, #8, and #10.  



Also, today you will be entering your reflection on your Journal page on your blog.  This is week #7, and we covered learning how to set tabs, Logo programming, an Edmodo post, and the crossword that is due today.  We will talk about Logo first, then complete the reflection, then work on the Logo Exercise 2 handout.
