I recently went to teach the basic Logo concepts of move and turn to draw squares,hexagons etc to pupils aged 7 and8 using Scratch and couldn't find an example turtle sprite so maybe its an idea to include one in future versions.
Of course, they had fun in creating their own but I'd rather have a starting one (as we did spend too much time on creating them and some were not that great ) and then let them create their own when we get down to maze racing
Also, while we doing this (over a few lessons) it would be nice to have a "move to the middle" motion block so I wouldn't have to gloss over the x/y concept (they don't want/need to know about such things) when getting the green flag to do a reset.
