Students created a creative color wheel in the form of a paint palette. Students traced shaped using cookie cutters and mixed their own primary colors to create all the colors needed for their color wheel. Students then discussed how a paint palette is used, created a paint palette out of construction paper, and glued their paint shaped to their paint palette.

Students studied the holiday Day of the Dead in order to understand the meaning and symbology of the holiday. Students compared this holiday to other holidays that celebrate common themes such as death, spirits, and family. Ultimately, the purpose in this project was for students to create a sugar skull of remembrance. The skulls would reflect the character, traits, and personality of either a deceased family member or the student themselves. This project was used for Art to Remember. |
