Hope everyone had a nice relaxing week without any school work. I also hope that you are well and that your families are, too! I am thinking a week of easy Optical Illusions could be fun!

This first one is pretty easy because…..you trace your hand! Make sure you trace the hand you DON’T write with OR you could ask someone to trace your hand for you. I like to put my hand to the top of the paper and add some arm, it makes the finished drawing look really cool.

After you trace your hand, draw lines from one side of the paper to the other BUT arch them slightly when you reach the lines that form the hand so that when the lines go through the hand they have a bit of a bump.

When you add color make sure that you make the bump inside the arm/hand/fingers with your color. You alternate every other section with color or do it like they do in the video.

I love illusions! They are fun to do and I like that they trick our eyes and mind to create something that really isn’t there!

Have fun with this and check back tomorrow for another optical illusion. As always- make sure you are doing your schoolwork, help out at home, get outside- but maybe not today- they are predicting a VERY windy day, and Be Kind!!!!!

Start collecting toilet paper and paper towel rolls, maybe some small boxes. I want to post some fun ideas using them in construction!!!
