As the 3rd grade continued their studies of Wassily Kandinsky, we moved into a cut paper project using Kandinsky's color studies as our inspiration. These cut paper studies took the form of trees. Students would begin by drawing a tree. Once the tree was drawn and outlined, student would cut the trees out.
We then used the basic shapes: circles, squares, and triangles to complete the colorful foliage of our trees. The students were encouraged to use a wide variety of colors in their compositions just like Kandinsky did as he worked on his color studies.
