For the last project of the year, we learned about color schemes like analogous, complimentary, warm and cool colors. The fourth graders chose a color scheme and 4 or less colors. Then we made our scratch art paper by coloring really hard on a piece of paper and painting over it with a special paint concoction (black tempera plus dish soap- weird, I know). After it dried, we scratched out our designs- and they appeared in beautiful colored fashion! Very cool!
