Beginning in 2013-2014 school year, I started a tradition with the out-going 5th grade class. They would work together to create a collaborative art piece which is permanently displayed in the school. Following the renovation, many of our halls were bare and desperately needed a splash of color. The next few posts will review the past projects in case you are unfamiliar with them. The 5th Grade classes of 2013-2014 completed 3 canvases with acrylic paint. The art was inspired by projects the students were completing individually in class. We were creating art with rotational symmetry. There are hidden words in each of the canvases below. Can you find the words? If you are having trouble, try this trick before giving up. Pretend the circle is a pizza, isolate one slice, and read from the outside moving towards the center. If you still can't see it, I have revealed the words below. The words are "CEDAR", GROVE", and "VIKINGS". The canvases are displayed in our front lobby above the main doors and below some windows. We have some beautiful architecture and skylights in the front lobby but people rarely stopped to admire it. Now, the artwork catches your attention and draws your eye upward. It was a wonderful improvement to the aesthetics of our new building with bland cream colored walls.
