excited learning which inspires students to achieve more than they ever
expected.
With just three keys young children can create rewarding pictures.
By just pressing the keys K and R and then holding down the D key children
discover the power of computer graphics! Pressing the R and C keys from
time to time makes the pictures even more interesting. This beginning
level style of pictures has been called 'plaid' by David Alexander.
