#Geometric shapes in art lesson how to#
Explain how to calculate the surface area of a triangle and a square.Introduce incorporating shapes and designs into the mandala Give students the remainder of the class to calculate their mandala size, circumference, and surface area.Demonstrate use of determining size, circumference, and surface area in creating a mandala.Show art reflecting a relationship between math and art, and ask: Students will use the words when creating their projects, when writing about their projects, and when discussing their projects Art language: mandala, symmetry, repetition, pattern, shape, and mindfulness.Subject area language: circumference, area, diameter, radius, and perimeter.Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, volume and surface area of two- and three-dimensional objects composed of triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, cubes, and right prisms. Know the formulas for the area and circumference of a circle and use them to solve problems give an informal derivation of the relationship between the circumference and area of a circle. Solve problems involving scale drawings of geometric figures, including computing actual lengths and areas from a scale drawing and reproducing a scale drawing at a different scale. Objective PR1.2 Convey meaning through their presentation/performance.Objective PR1.1 Combine knowledge and understanding from two or more disciplines to present/perform their original or interpreted works for an audience.Slide show to introduce project and related artwork (see outline at the end of the lesson plan)Īrts and Humanities: Anchor Standard 4: Convey meaning through the presentation/performance/production of an original work or unique interpretation of a work.Students present and display their mandalas.Students continue and complete mandalas.Students begin working on their mandalas.Show a mandala in progress, explaining how the circle was calculated.Students will write a two-to-three-sentence statement about their use of different formulas to construct their mandala.Students will choose at least one shape to create two different scales.Students will use at least three different sized shapes and calculate the area of each.Students will demonstrate understanding of the principles of symmetry, repetition, pattern, and shape through the design of their mandala.Students will use formulas for area and circumference of a circle to develop a mandala.Key concepts surrounding mandala design will be explored, including pattern, repetition, symmetry, proportion, and shape.
They will use their knowledge of circumference and area to develop a circle which will then become the container for their mandala designs and create their mandala by calculating the area and perimeter of different sized triangles and squares.
Students explore geometry concepts through their design and creation of mandalas.
