Adaptive Art- The Dot

Did you know that National Dot day was September 15th? For this reason, we read The Dot by Peter H. Reynolds. We then created artwork based on the book. I cut paper's 9" x 9" and squirted three dots of glue on them about 3 inches apart in a triangle shape. I then put the paper in a gallon size zip-lock bag and sealed it. Students were able to press on the bag and manipulate the paint. The mixed the colors to create new ones. We also learned that you can use a Q-tip to write letters in the paint. Here is the result.

I used yellow, turquoise, and magenta, because I realized that these mix prettier together than yellow, blue, and red.
