5th grade has completed their big-fancy-color theory project for the year. This project is a culmination of all the color lessons and activities that they have been working on over the years. I am happy to say, these kids are now pretty much color experts!
 |
| We began by reviewing the color wheel. Using only primary colors, students had to create all of the color wheel colors using tempera paint. |

| Next we looked at some art by Vincent van Gogh. His landscape, Flowering Garden, was the inspiration for our project! |
 |
| After sketching a landscape, students painted the drawing with tempera paint. The TRICKY part was that they were only given red, yellow, blue, black, and white. All other colors had to be mixed! |

| Check out that beautiful paint palette! |
