The Bees collaborated to create a large art installation project! We learned about analogous colors and warm versus cool colors on the color wheel. The students created warm collaborations (red, orange, and yellow) followed by cool collaborations (green, blue, purple). Our aesthetic focus was to learn about and create organic shapes, from both a microscopic and macroscopic perspective. For inspiration we analyzed at artwork by Lea Anderson, recurring shapes and patterns found in nature, and discoveries we made at our field trip to the Tenafly Nature Center. The students learned how to collaborate and work together as team to build the installation. While we have been building our compliment charts and learning how to evaluate fellow classmates art with positive comments, this project allowed students to begin learning how to find solutions when they disagreed. They succeeded in working both independently and together in an team effort.
