Geometric and Free-Form Shapes with 2nd Grade

My second grade students are learning about geometric and free-form shapes. It takes all kind of shapes to make a picture, but many of them are shapes that we know, like triangles, circles, and rectangles. My second graders had to make a collage using at least one geometric shape, and at least one free-form shape. Most of them were very creative! It was a little tricky making things like windows on houses with just shapes (and no crayons or pencils), but I showed the students how skinny rectangles can be used to make the criss-cross lines on a window.
