  2. Mrs. Arnone's Fourth Grade class:
    Yo Yo Yo this is so awsome.
    Off the hook. A Radiating Design needs to be the identical no mater what direction it is folded, from top to bottom, diagonally, or side to side.

  3. Mrs Ledo's Class:
    When creating our radiating designs we used colored pencil as our medium. We worked on a square sheet of white paper measuring 12x12. We colored patterns in some of our spaces and and blended colors in others. We left some white spaces. These will be displayed in our spring art show. Most of us found this project to be challenging. It took us 5-6 art classes to finish.

    Making the radiating designs is a lot of fun but also challenging. I think the radiating designs are coming out really well.

    We used Patterns in our Radiating Design Project. A pattern is something that repeats.

    I like doing the blends the best because it's like two colors together that make three colors and because they are just really fun to make. It took a long time to finish and it was very challenging to do.

    My favorite colors to use were bright pink and dark blue. They looked really pretty on the paper.

  37. When I finished I was so suprised at how it came out. I can't wait for it to go in the art show! When I first started I was having so much fun! Now that I'm finished, I was so happy because now a lot of people will see my project! I am also a little sad because I loved the radiating designs and now I don't get to do another one! I loved the radiating designs. -Ally 4A
