4th Grade Vases and Faces


  This is a new project that I discovered on Pinterest, a great site for ideas!  The kids LOVED it, and it is an excellent way to teach negative space- the space around or in between an object.  I traced everyone's silhouette while we were working on another project, and then we were ready to roll.  We explored the work of M. C. Escher, and also discussed how to use line and shape to make the vase look more 3D.  I will definitely be repeating this lesson next year!
