When I taught kindergarten and first grade, I used a single-key procedure
that I wrote to fit the needs of my classroom.  The students created some
fantastic graphics and really enjoyed using the computer.  Unfortunately,
nobody in my school district used Logo besides me, so there was no
carryover after they left my classroom.  I would probably still use a
single-key procedure for kindergarten and beginning first grade.
