Like a concrete poem - but just single words?
There are a lot of examples of concrete poems -

Subject: [teacherartexchange] Looking for art lesson

This is a hard one to describe but I will try my best!
 
At one time in history, I had an art lesson for showing students how to
draw
a word to look like itself. (ie, the word house drawn in the shape of a
house, Then cut the design out of paper to glue on contrasting paper. I
thought I found it at IAD but can't seem to locate it now. PBS has a new
kid
show called "Word World" that is designed in this way, but I want to
find
more examples than just that website.

Does anyone out there understand what I'm talking about? If you do I
would
appreciate a point in the right direction.

Thanks
TinaV
