Second Grade Art Week Three

Welcome to Second Grade Art!

One of the primary purposes of  second grade visual arts education is to discuss and reflect with others about choices made in creating artwork.

Task: Using the Creative Process, design a color wheel using only objects that you can find around your household or outside. Watch the video below for technical instructions!

Creative Process Discussion
  1. Imagine – use your imagination to brainstorm ideas by asking questions, having conversations, and recording ideas.
  2. Experiment – Arrange your ideas in a sketch or series of sketches.
  3. Create – Assemble your plan into a final arrangement and complete work of art.
  4. Reflect & Refine – Think about the process from idea to product.  What would you do differently next time?  What went well?

With someone in your household, reflect upon your experience engaging the Creative Process and making your own original household color wheel.

  • What aspects of your artwork do you like? Why?
  • What aspects of your artwork would you change if you made a second color wheel? Why?

Optional: Connect with us!  Share/talk about your design online and tag #dmpsdistanceart.  Also, take a picture of your household color wheel challenge and share it on social media using the tag #colorwheel
