4th Grade Mandalas

The fourth grade students are creating mandalas in class. We recently watched a few videos of Buddhist monks creating mandalas out of sand. We all were very impressed by the amount of work it takes to create these sand mandalas and the significance behind destroying them once they are completed.

Here are some images from the Art Show on December 8th, 2016.

Learning About Radial Symmetry with Sixth Grade!

We began this lesson by doing a pencil drawing of radial symmetry by tracing a circle and dividing it into sections. Students then had to repeat their design in each section of their circle and create a symmetrical design, which took lots of patience and hard work. They made beautiful creations that were on display at the Art Show!

As a reward for their hard work, we explored the iPad app 'Amaziograph' and the website 'Weavesilk' to create digital works. Here are some of our digital examples!
