{{Color-box|4|Learn Visual Programming|Turtle Blocks is a logo based programming environment for introducing students to the basics of programming.
We can use this to develop visualization, logical reasoning and algorithmic sense in students by performing various operations with the Turtle. This can help in the building of computational thinking and you can also introduce some geometry through this.
