Kids used their light icon to help them figure out which side of their bamboo shoot would be the lighter side. Even at third grade some still have to stop and think about this. I even had them finger walk from the icon to the bamboo to see which side their fingers reached first.
Some got away from using just horizontal and vertical cylinders and decided on their own what directions to use -- I loved it!! Now we have more variety.
I love this. Will try with 4th grade class new to art. More step by step would be awesome
