Art: Imaginary Worlds



The girls looked at the work of Paul Klee and noticed the shapes in his buildings, castles, and cities looked like building blocks. They built a little world with table blocks, photographed it, and then drew the shapes on the paper.  They colored each shape in with colored pencils and outlined the perimeter around the the building.  This is a lot of work with geometric shapes! Finally, they created little characters and made up a story about their little world (inspired by Dr. Seuss) that they recorded on their iPads.
