Stick drawing with geometric shapes enlivens classroom instruction and enhances visual intelligence

Simple drawings with stick-hands and stick-legs attached to bodies made of regular geometric shapes can come handy to classroom instructors to enliven their lessons and enhance visual intelligence of students through illustration skills and visual interpretation skills and picture reading skills.

A short note: Some useful learning from multiple intelligence theory

  • A geometric shape is an area closed by a boundary.

  • A geometric shape is created by combining the specific amount of curves, points, and lines which can be both regular or irregular shapes

  • Different simple regular geometric shapes are as follows: ~Triangle, Circle, Square, Parallelogram, Polygon

  • Shape learning starts from an early age as perceptual learning and are often used in primary level mathematics.

  • Shapes can be easily made by teachers with extension using suggestive strokes to cover shapes into identifiable forms.

  • Geometric shapes can create abstract interpretations of things that would normally be depicted difficult to draw actual organic shapes which are detailed and complex.

  • Use of geometric shape stick figures makes learning effective and enhances the visual intelligence of children and teachers both.
