Year 8
Lesson 1 Get into shapes
In this lesson learners are introduced to using Inkscape (or equivalent software) to create vector graphics. Learners start by simply looking at using shapes to create an image. They will spend time drawing and modifying shapes using shape tools. The idea of z-order (sometimes called layers) is introduced to learners, who will then change the x, y, and z position of shapes they have created.
Learning objectives
- Use tools to draw and modify shapes
- Change the position and rotation shapes
- Explain how z-order determines what is visible
