Grade 1/2 3D shape artworks

 Lesson Background:

As part of our Maths unit on 3D shapes, we created these 3D shape artworks, based on those from https://iblog.dearbornschools.org/kobeissiart/2020/05/18/2d-shape-vs-3d-form/

Lesson Materials:

1 A4 sheet with the background shapes drawn in

1 A4 sheet of white art paper, folded into 6 squares

coloured textas

1 black sharpie

charcoal

scissors

glue

Lesson Steps:

1.  Colour the background starting with warm colours from the sun and working to cool colours.

2. Model step by step how to draw 3D shapes. The children follow along on the white paper, putting 1 shape in each square.

3. Use the black sharpie to outline the shapes.

4. Model how to use the charcoal to shade the 3D shapes, as the children follow along.

5. Cut the shapes out and stick them on the background.
