Part of the unit: Creating Accordion Books |
LESSON
Materials
Cray-pas, paper.
Use cray-pas to sketch letter shapes and change them five or six times. Ask students to draw six squares on white paper and redesign the same letter in a different way for each box. Use line, shape, pattern, and color. Create a colorful background in each box.
Have students circle around a seating area. Select 3 people to share their work. Ask them:
- What letter did you choose?
- How many times did you sketch it?
- Show us how you used different lines. Colors. Shapes. Patterns.
