Painted cylindrical sculptures: Students will experiment painting a variety of lines as directed in addition to inventing their own on 12" x 18" paper. Students will also glue pre-cut paper strips onto their sculptures experimenting with a variety of paper sculpture techniques such as bending, folding and curling.; Format: lesson plan (grade K–1 Visual Arts Education and Mathematics); By Rose Szabo.

Teaching shapes using read-alouds, visualization, and sketch to stretch: This ReadWriteThink lesson encourages strategic reading and real-world math connections using a variety of techniques. Students explore shape and pattern through an adapted sketch to stretch strategy and read-alouds of winter-themed books. In the final...
