Shape Architecture Wonder

Shape Architecture Wonder

Create an algorithm to use [Drive for] and [Turn for] blocks and the VR Pen on the VR Robot to draw and color triangles, squares, rectangles, and/or trapezoids on the Art Canvas+ Playground to create a Shape Architecture Wonder!

• Select the Art Canvas+ Playground.
• Code the VR Robot to draw and color a triangle, square, rectangle, or trapezoid on the playground.
  • Drive the VR Robot to your desired position.
  • Determine the side lengths and inner angles of a specific shape. 
  • Utilize the Pen on the VR Robot and use the [Drive for] and [Turn for] blocks to code the VR Robot to draw the shape on the Canvas. When you need to repeat the [Drive for] and [Turn for] commands for a set number of times, use a loop to make the project shorter and more easily readable.
  • Drive the VR Robot into the shape area and use the [Fill area with color] block to fill the shape area with a specific color. 
• Code the VR Robot to draw and color more triangles, squares, rectangles, or trapezoids with various sizes at desired positions to create a Shape Architecture Wonder.
• Add a note in your project to explain the story behind that Architecture Wonder.

Helpful Hints

• Use the repeat block from the Control category to code the VR Robot to repeat the blocks contained inside for a set number of times.

  

  • Matching Python command:

    for repeat_count in range(2):
    	wait(5, MSEC)

• Use the ‘Download Canvas Button’ on the Art Canvas + Playground to save your work of art to share with others! To learn more about using the VR Art Canvas +, see this article. 
• Adjust the side lengths and inner angles to create your desired geometry shapes. For more ideas about designing the Shape Architecture Wonder, please see the following examples. Be creative!
