Shape Birds

These bright and colourful shape birds were created using fine liner pens and paint by our delightful grade one students.

We began this project by looking at pictures of birds and examples of different ways to draw their features. We discussed some shapes that we know such as circles, triangles, rectangles, squares...the list goes on! Students then decided how they wanted their bird to look and drew basic shapes for the body, head, beak and feathers. They filled their birds with outlines of their favourite shapes. Finally, students decorated their birds using all the colours of the rainbow!

We think they are just beautiful. Well done grade one!
