Color Mixing Caterpillars

First grade has been working on color theory - primary and secondary colors, color mixing, etc. We created these color caterpillars using masking tape rolls as the circle template. Sponge painting for the background, wiggly eyes, and pipe cleaners for legs and antennae made them come alive. Fun!

 

I am having a hard time with Blogger - they don't give me the option to rotate any photos! Sorry if your neck gets strained trying to view these!

Sixth Grade Letter Design

Sixth grade reflected on their experiences at Camp Whitcomb and came up with new ways to design letters. The results were pretty cool - check them out!

Students worked on developing block letters and making them as even and clean as possible. They then developed a list of things at camp using the 5 senses (things they smelled, saw, tasted, heard, touched), Using this list, they changed the letters into different things. They were encouraged to "think outside the box" and create interesting shapes on each letter. They had a lot of fun!
