What details and shapes will you need to communicate information about the function and personality of your Anibot? Heavier duty duct tape in clear and colors is added to reinforce and strengthen • Anibot polyhedra. Use scissors to cut tape and carefully attach. Connect polyhedra for your Anibot sculpture. Refer to original sketches to • determine where connection points will be. Cut a three fourth-inch piece of soft and hard hook and loop tape (Velcro), and apply one piece on either side of the connection. Take a look at the materials we have available—tapes, colorful wire and chenille • stems (pipe cleaners). Add wire by piercing a tiny hole in vinyl and then poking wire into the inside of the • polyhedron. Foam and eyes can be carefully cut, then backing peeled away to attach. Draw your finished Anibot on the Anibot Sculpture Specification Sheet. • Self check your work. o I can add details securely to distinguish character attributes. Describe how the specific details that you added communicate the function and personality of your Anibot. ARTS IMPACT MATH THROUGH ARTISTIC PATHWAYS Anibot Production Manual (APM) 20 ARTS IMPACT FAMILY LETTER Sixth Grade Anibots – Dear Family: Your child has participated in an Art and Math project. We learned how geometric shapes can be combined to create three-dimensional forms for sculpture (3-D art) by creating an (part machine, part animal…) soft sculpture made out of math “Anibot” shapes. We created a net pattern—flattened 2-D representation of 3-D forms on grid paper • using craftsmanship—careful drawing with rulers. We chose two 3-D forms made from nets to help us design and construct an • Anibot. Our Anibot designs, Anibot (part machine and part animal or human), are soft sculpture composed of two cubes or rectangular prisms. We calculated the surface area of our Anibots. • We calculated the volume of our Anibots. • We figured out which shapes should be used for patterns to guide cutting out all of • the pieces
