The Shape of Things

We invite you to make some birds and fish- or any other animal that comes to mind.
You can download and print the activity here.

YOU WILL NEED

• Scissors
• Glue
• Colouring pencils, paints or pens
• Plain paper or card to use as a background
• The shape template sheets (attached here)

ACTIVITY

Cut out the triangle shapes (see attached page) and arrangesome of them into a bird-like shape. When you are happy with your bird, make a little sketch of the arrangement so you know what you designed, then paint or decorate each part. When dry, glue them in place. Now have a go at the circles and try making a fish!

Tip: If you don’t want to cut out then draw around objects of different sizes on your page instead.
