Warm and Cool Colors


Fifth Graders : Students were provided with a white square of construction paper  12 x 12. I purchased special "circle creators" from Hobby Lobby. They are like a ruler but have a rotating center. If you hold the center in place and stick your pencil in a hole at the other end it will allow you to rotate around the page and draw a perfect circle. Choose different holes along the ruler to create multiple circles to fill the page. (holes about 4 spaces apart worked the best) We discussed warm and cool colors. Students created a pattern within the circles and an opposite pattern in the hands. These were done with crayons.
