My Expressions

Choo-choo! All aboard the creativity express! Shlok Koppula from Olive Mount Global School has crafted a delightful masterpiece that’s bursting with geometric shapes and vibrant colors. This 2D shapes scenery is a fantastic example of how math and art can come together in a fun and educational way.

Shlok’s train chugging through a colorful landscape showcases the versatility of simple shapes. The train cars are a symphony of squares and rectangles, while the wheels chug along as perfect circles. Triangles form majestic mountains under a semi-circular sun, and even the track itself is a series of ovals!

This math shapes art project is a testament to the power of creative learning. It’s a wonderful way for kids to explore geometric concepts while expressing their artistic talents. Whether you’re homeschooling or looking for engaging preschool or elementary school activities, this DIY paper craft is a surefire hit.
