Grades K-6
This month all students in grades K-6 have been drawing, painting, and creating colors. Color theory is very complex and involves how we organize, arrange, and mix colors. To organize colors and show their relationship to one another, we must learn how to use a color wheel. A color wheel is a useful tool that was initially developed by the famous scientist Sir Isaac Newton. There are numerous variations of a color wheel. This is a list of art projects that were intentionally selected and designed to build upon students prior knowledge each year. Some teacher examples and websites are also included for your reference.
