Can You Imagine?
I have to give credit where credit is due and admit that I took this lesson from one of my favorite blogs SmARTclass and I just couldn't resist to teach this one myself. After teaching a more structured lesson on Op Art, I gave my 5th graders and opportunity to let their imaginations run wild! We followed the basic steps of "dying" ordinary coffee filters into colorful circles using washable markers and a spray bottle full of water.
Once we had our beautifully colored circles, I asked the kids to transform one or both of their circles into an image. I asked them to share ideas they had as a class and did quick drawings of them on the board to show them how it would work. Then I let them get to their own art making. I just encouraged them to let their imaginations take over. And that, they did!
