Grade 1: Kandinsky Circle Study


Students began this project by looking at Wassily Kandinsky’s Color Study of Circles in Squares.  They discussed the colors and shapes that they found in the painting.  They then learned how to create concentric circles, or circles that go around each other.  The students were then given a paper divided into 12 squares and water souable oil pastels.  First and second graders dipped their pastels into water, then began making circles inside the squares.  It was our attempt to replicate the same study that Kandinsky did.
