Do elementary school kids even understand what perspective is?
- ajuc 4y agoKids aren't idiots, they just had too little time to learn everything. I've had perspective drawing in art classes in elementary school and nobody had problems understanding it after 10 minute introduction. Have you seen the willy coyote cartoon with a road painted on a rock? It uses perspective, and kids aged 7 understand what happens.
- Cockbrand 4y ago> Kids aren't idiots, they just had too little time to learn everything. These are wise words right there.
- bcrosby95 4y agoI don't know if you're punning or serious here. If you're serious, you can teach elementary school kids to draw with perspective.
- egypturnash 4y agoIf my memory of carrying around a book on the subject during my family’s visit to Washington, DC during the Bicentennial is accurate, I had learnt some basics of perspective drawing at the age of five.
- micromacrofoot 4y agoYes. Not unusual for a first grader to have a basic understanding of it. Naming 3d shapes (pyramids, cylinders, cubes) is kindergarten level stuff.
- bigbillheck 4y agoSome of them do, some of them don't. I think I first learned about it in 3rd grade or so.
