Lesson Support

In this lesson, students will use basic shapes to recreate a company, team, or game logo. The key to this "create" project is to look for logos that can be decomposed into basic geometric shapes like circles, squares, triangles, rectangles, and ellipses. Text can also be added using the Text block from the Shapes and Drawing Toolkit.
