Or GFXShapes:  http://www.graphics-muse.com/gfxmuse/gfxshapes.html
I think this is easier to use than GFig, but I'm a bit biased.  :-)

You should start with a tutorial about lines, like
http://www.gimp.org/~sjburges/straightline/straightline.html

Then apply the keys to rectangular and ellipse select tools (you will
see Gimp likes to use some keys a lot), or find some other tutorials
about selections, and fill the selections with the bucket.

Gimp is not a tool like other where you have circle or star or  shape tools. You have to combine the tools, and sometimes
filters, like GFig or Grid.
