Shapes!

Directions


What happens when you take some lines and connect them? What do you make? SHAPES!!

Start with some yarn or string...what happens when you connect the ends? Can you make shapes? What kind of shapes are you making? Do they have names?

Watch and listen to the book: Mouse Shapes. How many shapes do you see?



Here is a slideshow about shapes used in artwork!
