For this Grade 6/7 art lesson, we will learn about perspective. Students will use watercolours, tissue paper, and ink to create a winter snow scene.

Gift bows

Making bows out of magazines

(From the blog How About Orange)

Make nine strips of paper out of a magazine page. Try to use a page that has all colour on it. The strips should be 3/4 of an inch wide. Leave 3 of the strips full length, cut one inch off of the next three strips, two inches off of two strips, and the final strip should be three inches long (3 + 3 + 2 +1).

Loop eight strips as shown above and secure with glue, holding on for a few seconds so the glue sets. Curl the smallest strip into a circle. Assemble all the pieces from largest to smallest. The first layer make a six point star, and the final layer is the circle in the middle.
