Fourth grade explored patterns and contrast of color. The idea was to contrast the leaf with the background. We used black crayon and fluorescent paints. I bet you have never seen leaves like these before:)

Fifth grade showed me they knew and could apply the element of "space".  Every time they receive a piece of paper from me they need to think about space and how to use it.  We used fluorescent tempera and painted a school of jellyfish.....which I found out later was called a "smack" of jellyfish.
