I am trying to make a 3d/2d shape but there is no tool to make a 2d or a 3d shape.

Is there a way to fix this or make a shape? I need to do this for my class or I have to waste money on a coding professional. Please help me I can't even make a shape. Also does it not allow me to make a shape becuase im on a school account? This is not a joke I actually cant make a shape.

    Everything in Onshape is begun with a Sketch (shift+s or the button in the toolbar), inside of which you create 2d shapes and constructions on the chosen plane.  Then you use tools like Extrude (shift+e) or Rotate (shift+w) to pull that sketch out into 3d space.
    My tip for you is to get your hands dirty.  Don't get frustrated, don't actively try to design anything in particular, just mess around and see what things do
