Designing with Shapes

Recently we have been doing a lot of playing with shapes. We have been studying their form and observing how they appear in different ways in the world around us. Aziz can confidently name the common shapes: circle, triangle, square and rectangle. He is also challenging himself to learn the names of new, more complicated shapes. Daniel's favourite work with shapes has been creating different designs with them. He chose this piece for his portfolio because: "It's fun. I built a train with squares and circles". In this work he shows how he can manipulate and adapt shapes to make new shapes and images.
