Shape Annotation

It would be helpful if a shapes tool was added to the Annotation Toolbar feature in Canvas.  Drawing shapes using the drawing tool is difficult for Primary students (K-3).

Thanks for sharing this idea, @KelyeMcKee . As it moves forward for broader discussion, you might also be interested in adding a comment and rating to  Docviewer - default palette of icons/ images.

Currently the annotate feature in assignments doesn't have shapes.  Other apps like kami provide students with this option which is very useful in math.  The lines helps students create diagrams and complete things like pythagorean theorem on the coordinate grid.
