FANTASY CROCODILES!!!!
The project first starts with a discussion about color.
|
|
There are six main colors, an we focussed on the first,
and most important colors, the Primary Colors.
Those colors are Red, Blue, and Yellow
and they are important for two reasons. |
|
1. Primary Colors cannot be created from other colors;
they just exist the way they are. Thanks Hashem!!
2. Primary Colors can be mixed together in various
combinations to produce the Secondary Colors. |
|
The second art concept we discusses was Pattern,
and how with just simple repetition, you can take a single line,
shape, or symbol and turn it into a pattern. We also discussed
some of the patterns that exist in some animals,
like stripes and spots. |
|
Students then were told to pretend that we were
explorers who recently discovered a new species
of crocodile. Unlike normal crocodiles, these crocs
were only Primary Colors and full of different patterns. |
|
Each table was given a packet of papers that
when spread out and taped together, create
one big crocodile. Using crayons and their imaginations,
students worked in their table groups to complete the
entire crocodile, each adding their own creativity to the project. |
|
Each table had the opportunity to make two
complete crocodiles, which totaled about 20
crocodiles from the entire First grade. |
|
The crocodiles are currently taped together
and will appear on the Hillel Torah walls
across from the Library. |

Come by and see our family of Primary Color Crocodiles! |
