2nd Grade Da Vinci Invented Robots

2nd graders studied the life and art of Leonardo Da Vinci! They learned that he was practically a genius  in all the amazing inventions that he had and art that he created. We studio The Last Supper and the Mona Lisa.  In addition to being an amazing realistic painter, he drew in his sketchbook the first helicopter, tank and even a robot well before these were even created!

After studying the robot invention, 2nd graders created their own robots and used random gadgets to do some printmaking in the frame!

    Ah cute! We do robots, but I hadn't considered linking Da Vinci to them!

    I see that in your lesson plan you have a "robot packet" - can you possibly provide this for download as well? Thank you! I love your lessons :)

      Hello!

      So sorry but I don't have digital copies of the packets anymore. I just googled "how to draw robots" as an image search on google and SO many just pop up. Good luck!
