3rd Grade Symmetrical Color Wheels

3rd graders created symmetrical color wheels. Students created symmetrical designs in pairs on complementary colors (opposites on the color wheel). Students then worked on using the primary colors, to mix the secondary colors. In each color section, students practiced mixing tints (by adding white to lighten the color), and shades (by adding black to darken a color). Learning Targets: 1. I can create symmetrical designs (in sets of complementary colors). 2. I can mix the primary colors to create secondary colors. 3. I can create a variety of tints & shades of colors.
