First thing this morning the kids played Blurt! instead of doing PLL or ILL. After finishing MEP and reading St. Thomas Aquinas and the Preaching Beggars, I looked through the Using Color in Your Art and put together this project.I used the small radial cutter to cut 6 circles out of finger paint/wet media paper. I folded the circle 3 times to produce 8 segments. The boys outlined the segments and painted the same pattern in each using only secondary colors.
I asked what a radius was, and Ds#1 knew from reading Sir Cumference books.
They made some wonderful creations! As the book suggested we also looked at the use of secondary colors in The Green Violinist by Marc Chagall.

So nice to "meet" you.
What a beautiful blog you have created, very impressed.
I like this craft too and look forward to reading more of your blog!
What a second, I now realize from a picture that just loaded that I do "know" you!
Is this a 2nd blog or did you change your science blog to this?
LOL, this is my homeschool blog! I also have what I call a commonplace blog, My Ginger Jar with commentary about anything I come across--I even have a recent quote from you! I still have At Home Science too.
