Thank you. I also found the Geometric Face,, but I could not find the
directions you gave the kids. I like the way you present and I think
I give too many directions. How do you frame this assignment. Agin
thank you in advance. Have you ever written a book I could buy.

Pat,
You can see and read about this activity in a couple of places on my
websites. I've done different versions for different grades.
For the first grade version, go here:

I recall one of my evaluation writeups when I was teaching art and
my 1st grade students were doing a collage with geometric shapes.
There was a little tricky problem-solving component and some of
the students took a longer time to figure it out and that was ok
because I was interested more in the PROCESS of creating than I
was in the END PRODUCT and the principal wrote on my evaluation
that "some guided practice might have helped" those students.
Uh..... no..... I would say you didn't understand the art process
nor the idea of the lesson.
