The idea is simple\u2026 gather items in bright, solid colors from around your home, assemble them into color wheel order, and snap a pic! Then send a photo to Mrs Reynaert in your classroomgoogle.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are a few tips I learned while putting my color wheel together\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Start assembling your color wheel as you find things. Pick a spot where you\u2019ll have good lighting for your photo \u2013 you won\u2019t want to move it once you have it all assembled!<\/li>
  2. Using something round as a\u00a0template<\/strong>\u00a0is helpful.<\/li>
  3. I used a round coffee table and stood on our couch to take the picture. But if my color wheel had been any bigger I would have needed a ladder! So keep any size limitations in mind.<\/li>
  4. I also put a round placemat in the middle to hold that space open and then removed it for the photo. I think that\u2019s easier than trying to make all the colors angle into the middle, but go for it if you\u2019re feeling ambitious!<\/li>
  5. I liked having brown in the middle, because when you mix all the colors together they make\u2026. brownish gray! But that\u2019s optional, of course.<\/li>
  6. Make sure you get the colors in the right order (not<\/em>\u00a0optional!)\u2026. Just remember ROYGBIV (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet).<\/li>
  7. Check your work by making sure the complimentary colors are across from each other\u2026. red should be across from green, orange across from blue, and yellow across from violet. (Fun fact: If you mix any two complimentary colors together you get brownish gray!)<\/li>
  8. Take your picture from higher up than you think you need to, holding the camera level, and then\u00a0crop<\/strong>\u00a0it to a tight square. <\/li>
  9. Try not to get\u00a0too<\/strong>\u00a0carried away collecting things\u2026. remember, you have to put it all back! \ud83d\ude09<\/li>
  10. Send the photo to Mrs Reynaert in your classroomgoogle.com<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
