Direction
• Direction is used to indicate the way we are pointing, facing, or moving towards.
• Direction is based on the circle which has 360 degrees.
• The compass is a circle with 360 divisions.– North is 0 or 360 degrees– East is 90 degrees– South is 180 degrees– West is 270 or -180 degrees

The Circle• If you start out at any point on the circle and travel
360 degrees, you will end up in the same place and facing the same way as when you started. Try this:

Drawing With Scripts• Instead of drawing with the arrow keys, lets make
a program the computer to draw for us.• To draw a square draw a line and then turn:
?• How many degrees should we turn to make the
first corner of the square?• To make a complete square, how many times do
we need to do this?creativecomputerlab.com

• Can you spot the pattern in the script?• Hint: What is repeating?
• How can we make this script shorter and still do the same thing?

PolygonsA polygon is a shape with many sides:
• A square has 4 sides:
• A pentagon has 5 sides:
• A hexagon has 6 sides:

Polygons• A square has 4 sides.
– How many degrees does its corners have?360 / 4 = ??
• A pentagon has 5 sides:– How many degrees does its
corners have?360 / 5 = ??
• A hexagon has 6 sides:– How many degrees does its
corners have?360 / 6 = ??

Polygons• Here are the scripts which draw the polygons:
4x90 = 360
5x72 = 360
6x60 = 360

Draw Polygons
• Play with this project and see what kinds of polygons you can draw:

• What happens if you choose alarge number of sides? What shape do you get?

Make a Flower• Start out with a square:
• Put the square inside another repeat block. Remember that repeat x degrees must equal 360:
40 x 9 degrees = 360 degrees

Make a Flower• Try making squares of
different sizes:
• Change the pen color each time in the loop to create a rainbow effect:
• Make flowers all over the stage. Start the loops from these locations:
