Creative Color Wheel

Materials:
- tempera paint (red, yellow, blue)
- paintbrushes
- white drawing paper
- pencils
- scissors
- glue or glue sticks
- black mounting paper

I like to do a color theory lesson at least once a year with each grade. I think these just turned out absolutely beautiful!


The diameter of these circles were about 16". I drew a circle on a piece of tagboard prior to the lesson, and divided it into 12 sections evenly. I ended up with 12 pie slices that were used as tracers for my students.



For their preliminary draft, I asked the students to trace a pie slice three separate times on a piece of paper. They were then asked to change the shape, using the slice as a guide on how large to make their design. Each pie slice had to have a design that would allow them to incorporate two colors (one for the color wheel color, and one for the complementary color). Together we chose the best design of their three.





















With the chosen design, they now had to trace their own slice 12 times, so that they had enough to complete a color wheel.

To begin painting, I found it easier to ask the students to pick one set of complementary colors at a time. For example, blue and orange. In one pie slice, they paint the blue as the main color and orange as the accent. They then paint the orange in another pie slice as the main color and blue as an accent. After, they just worked their way around the color wheel. This helped keep them in order and not jump around.

I have individual color wheels that the each student was able to use as a reference also- this helped them keep at their own pace and remember which color to do next. 

The students were only allowed to use red, yellow and blue paint also, being in charge of their own color mixing.



When all their pie slices were painted and dry, the students cut out their individual slices. I helped them arrange the pieces on a piece of 18" x 18" black construction paper so that they made a complete and evenly spaced circle. The last step was for them to glue down their pieces!

  12. I'm usually very serious as this concerns Crazy Bulk. That is a systematic observation. What do we do with Fitness that has Fitness, because of the Fitness? You will need to give this stuff some thought. I suspected Crazy Bulk is a good theory. You really have to get into these practical words with reference to Perfect Body. I believe that there is a trial period.

  15. That is regardless of being completely confused pertaining to Beauty Secret Answers. Presumably, I did feel like I might find Beauty Secret Answers. The only bad part was Beauty Secret Answers. You ought to have your Beauty Secret Answers performance tested. The concept of becoming a big chain store cashier because of Beauty Secret Answers does not appeal to that many learners. That's where this article comes in. I can't deal with that. This is the time for them to take control of this.

Halo Semuanya Saya Bu SAFRILITA dari INDONESIA, ALLAH telah memberkati saya dengan dua anak dan seorang suami yang penuh kasih, saya ingin membagikan Kesaksian saya karena ALLAH menyayangi saya, setahun yang lalu saya sangat membutuhkan uang jadi saya berpikir untuk memiliki pinjaman kemudian saya bertemu dengan orang yang salah yang mengaku sebagai pemberi pinjaman, tidak tahu bahwa mereka semua scam. Saya ditipu sebesar 25 juta, dan mereka menolak untuk mentransfer pinjaman saya kepada saya, mereka juga berhenti mengirim email kepada saya sejak itu. kemudian saya bingung, seluruh hidup saya hilang. suami saya jatuh sakit dan ada tagihan rumah sakit yang harus dibayar dalam jutaan, yang bisa saya pikirkan saat ini adalah sucide, teman saya bernama Evi datang menemui saya pada hari yang setia itu, dia juga menjadi korban penipuan, dia memberi tahu saya tentang konferensi yang diselenggarakan oleh ibu Nurliana Novi untuk memberdayakan perempuan dan laki-laki yang ingin membuat kekayaan, dia meminta saudara perempuannya untuk membantu saya mengurus suami saya dan anak-anak, jadi kami pergi untuk konferensi. Setelah semua motivasi berbicara, dia mengajukan pertanyaan kepada kami "APAKAH ANDA SIAP MENGAMBIL RESIKO DAN MEMBUAT KEKAYAAN" dengan berani di jemaat kecil itu saya berdiri dan berkata "YA" dan kami semua diminta untuk datang keesokan harinya dengan rencana bisnis , dia berkata kepada kami, " SAYA TIDAK AKAN MEMBERI ANDA UANG, SAYA AKAN MENGAJARKAN ANDA BAGAIMANA MENGAMBIL RISIKO DAN MENDAPATKAN UANG UNTUK BISNIS ANDA,"  dia berbicara tentang bagaimana dia mendapatkan pinjaman dan koneksinya melalui ELINA JOHNSON GLOBAL LOAN FIRM yang hebat, sebuah perusahaan pinjaman online, segera saya menjadi takut, teman saya mendorong dan kami menghubungi Perusahaan ibu Elina, seperti yang diarahkan oleh ibu Nurliana Novi dari konferensi, saya dan teman saya mulai memproses sementara ibu Novi telah kembali, beberapa hari kemudian saya menerima telepon dari teman saya memberi tahu saya bahwa dia menerima peringatan dari banknya, pinjamannya telah disetor, sudah terlambat sehingga saya tidak bisa pergi ke bank saya untuk mengkonfirmasi, di pagi hari peringatan datang, saya akhirnya mendapat pinjaman sebesar 843 juta dari ibu ELINA JOHNSON GLOBAL LOAN TETAP, setelah mengikuti proses hukum. kami diberi arahan untuk menyerahkan rencana bisnis kami dan meninggalkan uang di bank selama seminggu, kemudian ibu Novi menelepon meminta kami untuk bertemu lagi yang kami patuhi, kami sampai di tempat tersebut dan melihat orang asing dampak pada perdagangan dan investasi, kami diberi kuliah dan kontak untuk memulai investasi, dalam enam bulan melalui koneksi ibu Elina saya mulai impor dan hari ini saya dan suami saya telah mendirikan dua perusahaan besar senilai MILIAR. Saya ingin Anda semua tahu bahwa satu-satunya pemberi pinjaman sejati yang saya saksikan adalah ibu ELINA JOHNSON GLOBAL LOAN FIRM, hubungi mereka hari ini dan Anda akan mendapatkan perubahan positif dalam hidup Anda, ini emailnya elinajohnson22@gmail.com. Anda dapat menghubungi saya di email saya safrilita1988@gmail.com, untuk konfirmasi lebih lanjut, jika Anda meragukan saya, saya siap menunjukkan kepada Anda semua buktinya sehingga Anda akan tahu ini bukan hanya cerita.

    Sudah empat tahun sekarang saya telah memberikan kesaksian tentang bagaimana saya meminjam Rp1,2 miliar dari ibu Helen dan beberapa orang meragukan saya karena tingkat penipuan online. Ibu Helen Wilson telah memberi saya satu hal lagi untuk tersenyum karena setelah menyelesaikan angsuran pinjaman bulanan yang saya pinjam sebelumnya, saya memohon kepada Ibu Helen bahwa saya ingin pergi untuk ekspansi bisnis lebih lanjut sehingga saya meminta tambahan Rp3,7 miliar setelah melalui saya proses hukum. pinjaman itu disetujui oleh manajemen mereka dan saya menerima pinjaman saya dalam waktu kurang dari 48 jam di rekening bank BRI saya. Saya tidak memiliki tantangan dengan bank karena Mrs. Helen Wilson dan tim manajemen pinjaman WEMA Finance telah dianggap sebagai pemberi pinjaman yang sah baik di Amerika Serikat, MALAYSIA, INDONESIA dan Rumania, sehingga tidak ada masalah sama sekali.
    Untuk pinjaman apa pun, saya sangat merekomendasikan Ibu Helen Wilson hari ini dan selalu
