4th grade was working on the difference between organic shapes and geometric shapes. They looked at the art of Reggie Laurent and had a great time imagining what all the organic shapes looked like in his artwork. They went to work making their own organic shapes with construction paper, and once they had a nice balance and variety of organic, they added geometric shapes. When their paper was full, they added lines with white oil pastel. Some of the shapes also contain patterns created with colored oil pastels. It took a little longer than I thought it would to cut all the shapes, but the students were 100% engages and the results are stunning.
