I used Turtle with my students this past Fall to introduce Python using
a graphical output which I thought would be more meaningful (and fun)
since interacting with the console can be intimidating. Getting back to
Turtle made me feel confident because I was able to remember a lot of
the functions without needing the documentation. I almost re-wrote a
tic-tac-toe game we did as a project, but scrapped the idea for time.
