In this activity, kids get creative by cutting cardboard into various shapes, then stacking it. The final step of pouring paint over their creations is definitely the icing on the cake!

In this fun activity, students experiment with manipulating paper to create different shapes and effects. They also learn about (and practice creating) symmetry!

This lesson is part of a sequential unit. Students use criteria developed in class to evaluate which of their own sketches would make the best symbolic sculpture. They choose a final design, techniques and materials, and create sculptures based on their designs.

This lesson is part of a sequential unit. Students participate in a class critique of the symbolic sculptures they created. They critique the work of their peers by responding to questions about the symbolic content and applying criteria for sculpture developed in Lesson 1.
