Color Wheel Flower Collages

Last week, all classes focused on collage.  The youngest group created color wheel collages.  We started out by looking at a color wheel and discussing primary and secondary colors and why colors have a special place on the color wheel.  I passed out pre-painted tissue papers, and they cut these into petal shapes.  They then arranged the colors in a circle, with the colors being in their special place on the “wheel”.  We glued these down with watered down glue, added a stem, leaves and a flower center.

This project definitely was a challenge.  I think they learned a lot, and the results are so bright and happy.
