3D Lines - Paper sculpture

A great way to use up scraps of construction paper in a way that is meaningful and fun! Before starting, we took a look at some of Dr. Seuss's buildings and landscapes. We reviewed accordion folds and paper chains, the rest was up to the students' imagination!

Line Sculpture

Really fun one day project for Kindergarten and First Grade!
Supplies: precut 1 inch strips of paper, black construction paper, glue sticks (or liquid glue)
Review types of line and introduce 3-dimentional sculpture. I gave them a few examples like accordion fold and wave lines, the rest is up to their imagination!

Line Designs

An easy one day project. We only get 30 minutes for each class, so sometimes its nice to do a quick project the students can make and take home with them. We talked about the Art Element: Line. We came up with a list of different types of lines, eventually they started listing different shapes lines could be composed of. For example, a line made of hearts, circles, stars, etc. Next, students drew their lines with sharpie, making sure each end touches the edge of the paper and proceeded to color in rainbow order.
