Keith Haring and Graffiti
Students appreciate the art of the artist Keith Haring. They design and implement Keith Haring-like images for a wall mural and explain and experience a project containing many different compenents and processes from beginning to end.
Curated OER
Human Abstraction
Students explore and compare abstraction of human forms in various ancient cultures and by creating self-portraits using geometric shapes. They identify which geometric shapes form the following features: face, nose, arms, torso, legs,...
Curated OER
Roll or Slide?
Students explore models of three-dimensional shapes. In this geometric shapes lesson, students use hands-on manipulatives to explore three-dimensional shapes. Students predict whether each shape will roll or slide.
Curated OER
Falling Into Geometry Through Paper Art
Students explore geometric shapes. In this kindergarten geometry lesson, students create a fall quilt consisting of three different paper geometric quilt squares that when assembled form a scarecrow, a pumpkin, and a crow. ...
