    • pu = pen up so it doesn’t draw
    • pd = so it draws again
    • setpensize 10 for a thicker line
    • circle 30 
    • arc 50 180 draws part of a circle
    • repeat 4 [fd 100 rt 90] for a square
    • pu setxy 50 60 pd to jump to a new place without drawing.  Here’s a Scratch program to help find which numbers to use – Positioin finder

  2. Type accurately
  3. Spot your own mistakes – be resilient
  4. Save (logo face) and tag (y5logo)
