The project below starts with one pinwheel-drawing script: a repeat 21 loop that moves forward 100, back 70, and turns 360/21 degrees, plus small scripts to put the pen down and clear the stage. Make five copies of the script (right-click its topmost block and choose "duplicate") and modify the copies so they draw pinwheels with 3, 4, 5, 6, and 12 branches.

Then compare two of your scripts: they're essentially the same, only some input values change. Turn them into a single general pinwheel block with an input for the number of branches, so one block can draw all of those designs.
