 +For this activity, we will be sharing our code on the [[https://​trinket.io/​|trinket.io]] platform, which is a website similar to [[https://​glowscript.org/​|glowscript.org]] for running and editing Glowscript programs. You may choose to copy and paste the code from trinket into a new Glowscript program, or you can try out trinket for this activity. Both websites are useful, and they offer different affordances and constraints.
  
 +===== Snowman Activity: Making and Placing Shapes in Glowscript =====
 +
 +**Follow this link for the activity: [[https://​trinket.io/​glowscript/​6d826242b4|link]]**
 +
 +You should see something that looks like this:
 +
 +{{ shapes_trinket_screenshot.png | trinket screenshot}}
 +
 +In the first few lines of code, there is some green text is marked with a # character. These are called "​comments"​. The computer can't see them, but you can create comments to help with readability when you share code with other people. Read the comments in lines 3-9 and try following their instructions to start getting comfortable using glowscript.
 +
 +Try working on your coding chops by creating a collection of shapes. We suggest taking your mind off the summer heat by making a snowman, like the one below:
