Answer:
if i Move and Turn commands which allow the child to move the sprite around the screen with simple control commands. These commands are an important way of introducing children to geometry when combined with the pen commands that leave a trail as the sprite moves. The idea is that the children can experiment themselves and discover how to draw a triangle, square, pentagon, and other shapes without necessarily knowing the angle required to draw each shape. This is an important principle of ‘constructivist’ learning that forms part of the power of the LOGO language used in education over the past thirty years. Scratch provides an easy way of getting children to use turtle graphics without the need for a physical robot.
