Materials: background paper of your choice no larger than 8 1/2 x 11in, cut paper shapes in various sizes and colors, glue jars, glue brushes, scissors. What a meaningful way to integrate math and spatial learning through art. There is such joy in seeing the pile of shapes growing…the mathematical discovery is immense. If I fold those diagonally, I will have eight triangles! The possibilities are endless. If I cut the square in half and cut, it will make two rectangles, and if I fold those in half and cut, it will make four squares. It will always be treated and output as pixels, and always rendered on screen as pixels. Photoshop is a pixel editor, and not the right application for something like this - unless you understand the implications and take precautions. If I cut those in half, and cut, it will make four.and so on. Short answer: because you are zooming in. If I fold one rectangle in half, and cut, it will make two rectangles. During the first conversation about shape we learn all those wonderous mathematical truths. Adding shapes together, we can illustrate almost anything! I begin with a tray on each table of cut squares and rectangles. Lesson Development: It is empowering to realize that all things come from shapes. They talk back to me, and let me know they’ll try their best! Just like our pencil, our scissors can draw shapes we all know, like triangles, and rectangles and they can draw shapes we invent ourselves. I get up close and whisper to them, and let them know that they can draw, just like a pencil.

A fun way I introduce how to cut shapes in collage is to “talk” to my scissors.

Step 2 Choose from our library of professional graphic design elements such as banners, icons, frames and more. Motivation: Motivating for collage is fun times! For the primary grades it is about holding the scissors, using them to cut shapes and gluing them down. Step 1 Create a new Canva account to get started with your own Heart-Shaped Collage design. This lesson usually comes after a class of collage exploration where we are getting to know the materials and processes that go along with collage itself. Today I am going to discuss the tried and true Shape Collage. It creates a deeper understanding of shape, form and detail…and of course it’s fun! You can vary your learning experiences during each lesson, while teaching collage through a variety of motivations.
It helps develop eye hand coordination and fine motor skills.
