=== How to play Amazonas Tortuga ===
  −
 
  −
[[File:Amazonas-toolbar.png]]
  −
 
  −
# Select a challenge from the Combo Box (Shown above: 'amazonas 30').
  −
# Use blocks from the various palettes to instruct the Logo turtle to replicate the pattern.
  −
 
  −
----
  −
 
  −
Please refer to the [[Activities/Turtle Art]] pages for basic instructions on how to use the block interface and the details of various toolbars.
  −
 
  −
The shape challenges are loaded from the Combo Box on the Project (Palette) toolbar. When you select a shape, it will be loaded onto the canvas. When you use the Erase button, the current shape is reloaded.
  −
 
  −
The available blocks are small subset of the Turtle Block blocks: the basic turtle blocks; a reduced palette of pen and color blocks; some basic arithmetic operators; the repeat block; and the action and box blocks.
  −
 
  −
The Export palette includes save as Logo; save as image; and save as Turtle Art.

=== What are the challenges? ===
  −
 
  −
The challenges are problems of symmetry and geometry which typically can be solved by using a combination of rotations and repeat blocks.
