Symbolic Shapes for Colors

5th grade followed up their color wheel project with discussing symbolic shapes and color meanings.  They watched a color video for each primary and secondary color, then drew an image that represents that color on their worksheets.

Shape Monsters

Kindergartens traced, cut, and glued a circle, a square, and a triangle on their background paper.  Then students glued on legs, eyes, mouths, and teeth.  To complete their monsters they drew details such as eyeballs, eyelashes, and even mustaches.

Then doors and square windows where added to complete their project.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hand Print Bats

2nd grade started their bat project by first watching an educational video about bats.  Then students traced and cut out their hand shapes for the bat wings.  They chose a face/body color and added facial features.  Then they added ears and glued everything together including a decorated popsicle stick to hold when making their bats “fly”.
