Although this blog hasn't been updated in a very long time, second graders have been busy in the art room! The month of December was spent working with clay. You can read about the experience here. Upon returning in January, students studied the color wheel and learned about complementary colors. They used the interactive foam board color wheel to remove and replace the different sets of complements. Next, they used crayons or colored pencils to create a color wheel of their own. In addition to coloring the color wheel correctly and showing the correct three pairs of complementary colors, students also had to recall their prior knowledge and show the primary, secondary, warm and cool colors. The following week, each student reached into a bag and picked out a 6 x 6" colored square. They learned how to fold it into a triangle, curve the short edge, and cut into all edges to make a snowflake. Next, students had to find the complement of the snowflake, on which they mounted it. Great job on your complementary snowflakes, second grade!
