| 1. t.penup() – lifts the turtle’s pen so it won’t draw a line while moving. | ||
| 2. t.goto(x, y) – moves the turtle to the coordinates (x, y) on the screen. The `x` and `y` in the `t.goto()` method are the `x` and `y` coordinates of the turtle. We want to change the `x` and `y` coordinates of the turtle from `(0, 0)` which is center of the image, to somewhere a little further away so that the Nuvo can navigate within the maze and Nuvi can hide inside the maze. | ||
| 3. if isPenDown: – checks if we want the turtle to start drawing again. | ||
| 4. t.pendown() – puts the pen down so it can draw. | ||
| 5. return – ends the function (optional, but good practice). |

| Change the maze color to something fun like "brown" or "darkgreen". | ||

| Make your walls thicker or thinner by adjusting the pensize. | ||

| Try creating extra paths — can you make a secret shortcut for Nuvi? |

Usually we don't allow students to see the answer key - we usually only let instructors look at the whole thing
