Marsha From Zawadi Yetu

Marsha is a grade 3 student in Zawadi Yetu. She liked Inkscape from the first day because she could make shapes with beautiful different colors. She was drawing the coloured shapes and uploading them to share with other students.

Learning To Learn

She then today asked "Kwani ni shapes tu peke yake zinaundwa akuna kita ingine?" (Why is this program only shapes? Can it make something else?) I also had no idea if other things could be made.

Trendsetting in Grade 3

She then figured out by herself and realized "ooh", I can also draw not only shapes but also a coloured house. She drew very nice coloured house and now she has become the "teacher" in her class teaching others to draw different things in Inkscape.
