Design a famous city or invent a skyline filled with geometric shapes. Add Crayola® Model Magic to create a bas-relief cityscape.
1.
Brainstorm names of plane and solid geometric figures. Categorize, define, and describe these figures. Study the skylines of large cities to note architectural use of these shapes.
2.
Use Crayola Scissors to cut construction paper to fit a sheet of cardboard. Glue construction paper to cardboard with a Crayola Glue Stick.
