Make a cylinder that is 6x as long as its diameter. Flatten the ends and attach smaller cylinders that are 1/4th as long as the original cylinder and 1/4th its diameter. The two smaller cylinders start wider near the middle cylinder and then grow narrower before widening again out at the tips. Each smaller cylinder has two incised lines that circulate the circumference in a parallel fashion. One of the cylinders has a hole cut through its diameter, centered between the two lines.
What is it?
Those are the instructions that began a game during the visual art class portion of the MS Arts Tour. One person described a hidden object to other people who sculpted it in clay based on their description. It proved to be a lesson in keen observation, geometric vocabulary, and above all, listening skills! Below are some of the results from the 7th grade game. Lots of fun was had by all!
