We integrated the 4th grade space science unit into art class. We talked about how to use value to create an image that looks more like a sphere rather than a flat circle. Students used tempera paint to explore color gradation and they also experimented with using watercolors to create a wet on wet technique in order to make a more realistic planet. Students worked in groups to invent their own solar system. They shared some very creative stories to explain the history of their solar systems.
