Ninth graders build on one-point perspective to learn two-point perspective — using two vanishing points to draw objects seen from a corner, creating realistic, dimensional space.
Students will be able to…
Look at a building from its corner and both sides recede away from you — that’s two-point perspective! How do you draw it?
Project this and have students put the two-point perspective steps in order.
Tap any phase to open the teacher moves and student actions.
