i agree;

also, i started this thread since i did not find any *introductory*
and rich enough resource a school student can use to learn TA or
turtle module or, broadly speaking, turtle programming in Python (if i
am wrong, please tell me)

if nobody else did something in this regard, i'll be happy to do some
work in this direction as soon as the school end, early june;

of course, since my students are very young and with no previous
programming experience, i'd like to start with TA

let me know also if anyone is doing something similar, to prevent double work

thank you again
