Perspecitve City

Junior High students learned about one point perspective in this lesson. First, they used pencils and rulers to create the vanishing point, horizon line, the basic outline of the street and the buildings. Next, they were asked to think creatively and add store names or designs to the city. Students were given the choice of using colored pencils or watercolor pencils for this project. The last step to this project, which was optional, was to use a thin black marker to outline and clean up some of the lines.
