Discuss the appearance and uses for different buildings (form and function) with your child to emphasize why architects are important. The architecture collage can even serve as the beginnings of a whole shape city if your child likes. Optional: Your child can embellish the building by decorating it with a markers or crayons.This can be repeated for multiple buildings. Have your child make a collage by gluing the shapes onto the construction paper sheet to form a building.A triangle may turn into a roof, rectangles in a row may turn into columns, or a square may become a window. Allow your child to first play with the shapes, building new and different creations.These will become “building blocks” of each structure she will make. Help your child cut out basic shapes such as squares, rectangles, and triangles from the construction paper.If this is not possible, you can look for some building or architecture based picture books and read about building while discussing the illustrations or photographs. Ask your child to look at the houses and buildings and name parts of the structure (i.e., roof, door, window, porch, column). Go on a walk around your neighborhood to look at some different types of architecture.This activity will encourage your child to build important pre-math skills such as understanding the “part to whole” relationship and recognizing geometric shapes, while along the way creating a unique work of art. Let your child’s imagination run wild as she creates simple structures, massive monuments, and pretty palaces.
