Here is the code.

For my project, I didn’t want to code a Christmas tree because I thought everyone would probably code that, so I coded a present with some snow in the background. This was one of the first times I used the fill tool. In the beginning, I kept on writing beginfill and endfill, not begin_fill and end_fill, so that was confusing. This was also one of my first times using the random xy in Python, I did it in TurtleArt but not Python. I am overall pretty happy with how the present turned out and I like it. I did struggle with the bow for the present and the random xy a little bit. For the bow, I didn’t know if I wanted it to be an oval shape or just a circle. In the end, I chose a circle. Also, since it was my first time using the random xy in Python, I struggled with that a little bit and got help from Mr. Dembo. I learned more about the random xy and the fill tool. Overall, I learned a lot and am happy with my final result.

Here is the code.

For this challenge, I wasn’t able to finish it on time. I got the first 2 lines of the maze but then I couldn’t figure out how to make it so that the turtle kept going through the correct parts for the rest. I tried making the turtle go back to the beginning of the line and then just have it run like that, but then I realized that wasn’t very efficient. I struggled trying to figure out how to make the turtle go through the correct parts every time and it kind of stressed me out. I am proud I was able to code the beginning part because I honestly didn’t even think I could do that. While coding this, all the r’s and t’s sometimes confused me and I wasn’t able to solve the whole thing. After seeing some completed codes by the people who finished, I am starting to understand how they did it. I learned many things but one major thing I learned more about were the lists. If I had more time, I would probably try and figure out the next part of the code. I think this was a very interesting project, and I learned a lot from it.

This was my turtle race. It was one of the first times I used an action block in Python. I learned a lot more about the action blocks and it was also my first time using the random block (in python) as well. I am proud that I was able to get the random numbers to work and get the action blocks to do what I wanted. While most students probably used the go-to command, I manually made them go into the spots. I think doing this makes it look like the racers are getting into position and getting ready. If I had more time, I probably would have added and finish line and a starting line. I would also probably change the shapes of the turtles (or arrows) as well. In the end, I learned a lot.
