Project #2 (Elements and Principles)


This photo was taken at a Colorado Rockies game, I used it to show Space.

This photo was taken at Estes Park CO, I used it to show Unity.

This is a photo of my wall which is used to show Texture.

This picture of my folders is used to show Color.

This photo of Jerde Hall is used to show Balance.

An extension activity for this project that I would do is have the students use the principles of math (addition, subtraction, ect.) and find or create photos the demonstrate that. An example of this would be having a photo of two flowers spaced apart, and then having two flowers on top of each other next to them.

For example, the mosaic for South Dakota could be Mt. Rushmore. I would then hang them up like a map, with the ...

Project #4 (DOT Day)

After the dots dried on the coffee filters, we hung the them with other students dots. An extension activity the students could do is have them create planets and moons on the dots and hang them from the ceiling, thus creating a classroom solar system, where I as the teacher would create a giant dot to represent the Sun.
