After learning about primary and secondary colors, namely how to mix secondary colors only with primary colors, the 5th graders received a black sheet of paper and a pencil.
I instructed them to use a pencil to trace at least 5 hands or 5 feet or a combination, making sure to overlap each. Then they designated each hand or foot a primary color. The non-overlapping areas would remain that original primary color; the overlapping areas would be the resulting secondary color.
They then outlined it all in black and used white oil pastel to create interesting patterns and lines.
