" Set Scene Section 1: SETTING THE SCENE ^ recognised that the same language is used to programme a screen turtle and a floor turtle. ^ knows that the size of numbers used for distance is different for a screen turtle and a floor turtle. " FocusedTasks Section 2-6: SHORT FOCUSED TASKS ^ has recognised that commands typed in LOGO are in the same language as they have been using with the floor turtle. ^ recognised that the screen turtle reacts with the same movement that is shown by the line it draws. ^ was able to produce two shapes on the screen and ^ has learnt how to move the screen turtle without drawing a line. ^ has learnt how to use the repeat instruction and ^ was able to accurately predict what would happen next. ^ knows that sequences of instructions can be named and edited. ^ has developed the skills required to combine procedures to form a new procedure. " PracticalTask Section 7: INTEGRATED TASK # has learnt how to write procedures using standard commands. ^ is developing ~ skill of combining two or more procedures to produce ~ desired outcome.
