The first thing you will need to fill out on the New Messages window is the email header
information. This consists of the following fields:
To: the To field contains the e-mail address or addresses you are sending the email
message to.
Cc: in this field, you can include additional email recipients.

Subject: contains a brief description of your email topic.

Now you want to identify who you’re sending the email message to using the To field. You
can do this is one of two ways:
• type the email address in the field. If there’s more than one email address, use a

comma to separate them.

• click the To field to search your email contacts. Select the contacts you want to send
the message to from the Select Names: Contacts dialogue box.




























You also need to complete the Subject field before you send your email message. In this

field, type a short description of what the email is about.

3.4. Forwarding an Email Message Bcc 1


• You do not have to copy anyone on your email 1 {

message to send it, but MS Outlook gives you the
option to copy or blind copy additional recipients if
you want to. e-Mail Communication

• Contacts who are copied (Cc) on an email message

are typically not expected to respond.
• They are receiving the message for informational
purposes only. For example, you may copy your

friend for a birthday party invitation.

• Contacts who are blind-copied (Bcc) on an email {
message are not visible to others who receive the Cc
message.


Also, you can use the Select Names: Contacts dialogue box to specify the recipients
that are being blind-copied on the message. Instead of clicking the To or Cc field on the

dialogue box, use the Bcc field.
Once you have carefully reviewed your message, you are ready to send it. Click the Send

button in the upper left of the New Message window. Your message will be sent.


3.5. Formatting an e-Mail Message

Why You Should Learn


to Code?








Future Demand


According to Code.org, 71% of all new STEM jobs are in

computing. Learning how to code will give your child a
head start in the real world.




Creativity skill


When children learn how to code they do not only

consume digital media and technology but create it.



Communication skill



Learning how to code improves logical
communication and strengths in both verbal and

written skills.




Coding is fun


By coding, children can develop their own games,

website, apps and much more. They actually build their

own dreams and desires!

4.1. What is FMS Logo



FMS Logo is a free implementation of a computing
environment called Logo, which is an interactive

programming language that is simple, powerful, and
best of all fun. FMS logo can be downloaded from

fmslogo.sourceforge.io














































Meet the Logo turtle! He doesn’t have a name. Everyone just calls him the turtle. Sure, he

looks like a triangle, but he’s really a turtle. He’s no ordinary turtle. Unlike other turtles, this
one will do exactly what you tell him to do. Right now, the turtle doesn’t know many tricks,
but he’s a fast learner and he wants you to teach him.




The turtle has a pen tied to his back, so he draws a line wherever he goes. This means you
can draw pictures just by telling him to walk around.












61

The City School 2021-2022






4.2. Getting Familiar with Turtle Commands



The turtle can only follow instructions that he understands. If you give the turtle an
instruction that he doesn’t understand, he’ll say something like I don’t know how to do that.

Here are some instructions that the turtle already knows.




Procedure Example Description


Forward (number) FORWARD 100 the turtle walks forward 100
screen dots

BACK (number) BACK 100 the turtle walks backward
100 screen dots

LEFT (angle) LEFT 90 the turtle turns left

CLEARSCREEN CLEARSCREEN The turtle erases everything
that he has drawn and goes

back to where he started
PENUP PENUP The turtle moves without

drawing a line
PENDOWN PENDOWN The turtle moves and draws

the line all the way




When you say FORWARD 10, the turtle moves forward 10 screen dots. These screen dots

are also called picture elements or just pixels. The bigger the number, the more the turtle
moves. But what does the number that follows RIGHT and LEFT mean? It’s the number

of degrees to rotate. Here are some pictures to help you remember. For every RIGHT
instruction, there’s a LEFT instruction that does the same thing.

LEFT 180 LEFT 135 LEFT 90 LEFT 45


4.3. Drawing a Square


The turtle doesn’t know how to draw a square. We are going to teach him how, using the
commands that he already knows.

















First we draw line using Next we make a corner by turning
FORWARD 100 command right using RIGHT 90 command
















Draw another straight line using Repeat the commands until the

FORWARD 100 command square is drawn








63

The City School 2021-2022





Your code should look like this:



FORWARD 100

RIGHT 90
FORWARD 100

FORWARD 100

FORWARD 100


4.4. REPEAT Command


In the previous section, we created a square using individual commands. If you observe

closely, most of the instructions were the same. We can create a square using REPEAT
command as well.



Procedure Example Description

REPEAT number [instructions] REPEAT 4 [FORWARD The turtle does the
100RIGHT 90] following four times:

moves forward 100, turns
right 90°.



With the REPEAT command, we can draw a square with just one instruction.





































64

The City School 2021-2022







Even though the turtle just drew a square, he
didn’t learn how to draw a square. If you type in Checkpoint

SQUARE, the turtle will say something like I don’t urtle
Logo is an interactive programming
know how to SQUARE. Try it. language that is simple, powerful, and
best of all fun.
If we want the turtle to learn how to draw a The REPEAT command allows you to
repeat commands a specific number of
square, we have to give him an instruction that time. Coding T

teaches him how.
Now you can use REPEAT command to draw a rectangle, pentagon or any other

polygon. It is only possible if you know at which angles turtle has to turn and how
many steps (commands) have to be repeated to create the required shape.

Always remember that to create a shape involving angles, you have to divide 360 by
the number of sides of the shape, which you want to draw.

For instance,
• If you want to create a pentagon then you have to divide 360 by 5 to get the

angle that will be used to create a pentagon by turning left or right.
• If you want to create a hexagon then you have to divide 360 by 6 to get the angle

that will be used to create a hexagon by turning left or right.
You can draw any shape using the directional command and angles in FMS Logo.


4.5. Changing PEN and SCREEN Colour



You can change the colour of the lines that the turtle draws with the SETPENCOLOR

command. You can change the colour of the screen (or background) with the
SETSCREENCOLOR command.



Command Example Description

SETPENCOLOR color SETPENCOLOR 2 sets the colour that the turtle

draws to green.
SETSCREENCOLOR color SETSCREENCOLOR 2 Fills the entire screen with green.

Anything on the screen will be
erased. The turtle is not moved.














65

The City School 2021-2022







Quick Tip


The spelling of the word colour in FMS Logo is the American spelling color.






Colour Index


The easy way to change the colour of the turtle’s pen is to give SETPENCOLOR a number
from 0 - 15. Each number will set the turtle’s pen to a different colour, given in the table

below. The number is called the colour index.



Colour Index Colour Name [R G B] Colour

0 Black [0 0 0]

1 blue [0 0 255]

2 Green [0 255 0]
3 Cyan(light blue) [0 255 255]

4 Red [255 0 0]

5 Magenta (reddish purple) [255 0 255]

6 Yellow [255 255 0]
7 White [255 255 255]

8 Brown [155 96 59]

9 Light brown [197 136 18]

10 Dark green [100 162 64]
11 Darkish blue [120 187 187]

12 Tan [255 149 119]

13 Plum (purplish) [144 113 208]
