I began this quick and easy lesson on form and shape with a substitute one day a few weeks ago. Once I returned we went into more depth (no pun intended!) about how the curved lines make our hearts appear to pop out of the page. We also talked a bit about the color spectrum so some students chose to do theirs in color spectrum order, although that wasn't a requirement. We used one of my favorite mediums (besides paint of course!) Crayola Color sticks. We even incorporated some fraction math by dividing the heart. I should also mention that we drew everything in pencil first, then traced in Sharpie. Otherwise you'll have black sharpie all over your rulers! Instructions are posted at the bottom! :)
