Line Sculptures

The kindergartners were introduced to sculptures recently.  We observed many examples via a PowerPoint presentation.  We compared the differences between  2-Dimensional and 3-Dimensional objects.  Some of the sculptures we looked at were realistic, while others were more modern and abstract.  The students loved seeing all the differences in size, color, and textures.  For our project we used strips of construction paper to make wavy sculpture lines.  We imagined that we were making a roller coaster, water park, race track, etc.  We discussed many ways that the paper could be manipulated to create a 3-Dimensional line.
