The 6th Grade Art class has been abuzz with excitement the last few weeks as they explored the fascinating realm of color theory and its incredible impact on our artworks. Students learned about the vibrant color relationships like complementary, analogous, and monochromatic colors, and discovered the secret to creating the entire color wheel using only primary colors. They put their knowledge into practice by designing edible color wheels out of cookies and icing, and took on the "100 Hearts Challenge" by mixing every possible color using watercolor. To wrap up the unit, the students applied their new understanding of color theory and watercolor painting to create stunning Colorful White Birch Tree landscapes. Where the students got to experiment as curious scientists for a class period by incorporating salt into their watercolor to achieve a unique texture effect on their background.

They had meaningful discussions about what it means to be a leader, volunteering in the community, what it takes to be a Viking! 💙💛
