These silhouettes were a combined effort of several grade
levels. Second graders learned about
analogous colors and painted loads of papers to use for the dots. Fourth grade teams picked an action pose and
traced a teammate on black roll paper to make the silhouettes. Then whatever classes had a little time, had
a mini lesson on mosaic art and color theory and began adding colored
spots. When finished, they wouldn’t fit
through the laminator. I love them and did NOT want to see them tear in the
gym in three weeks, so I cut them into laminator size bits, and ran them
through. Again, the amazing Mrs. Cresta
to the rescue! She pieced all the bodies
back together (not an easy task) and got them all displayed in the gym. What an impact!
The original
inspiration for these came from Mrs. Peterson over at The Falcon Acadamy. Thanks for sharing!
The sports spheres were created by our fourth graders. Click here for the details.
