3rd grade shapes

We started the school year with a drawing that had only geometric shapes. We learned that a geometric shape is a shape with a name like a triangle, square, star, rectangle etc.. Their geometric shapes should overlap in some aces and they were encouraged to draw big! Then, we cored in with markers using the "lawn mower" technique. This means their coloring is in a back and forth movement. Warm and cool colors should touch each other. These turned out fantastic do far!
