Constructions game

I hate teaching constructions. It’s so fiddly. Here’s a little game to make it a little nicer.

A little exploration of trying to make shapes using only lines and circles. It’s fun.

    I can’t seem to get the game to work. Once I have drawn a circle, I can’t fix it to the page and grab something else. Any ideas?

      Circles must go through other points. So the first circles’ circumference must pass the other dot you get at the start.
