Patterns, patterns, everywhere! In third grade art, we closely looked at pattern and how it can be dissected into some of the basic elements of art: line, shape, and color. A pattern can repeat any combination of those three elements. Then, we zoomed-in and examined some familiar patterns that I photographed around the school. After we were feeling pretty confident in the pattern department, we embarked upon a Pattern Scavenger Hunt on school grounds. In their sketchbooks, students were on the prowl for several different kinds of patterns: a geometric pattern, an organic pattern, a pattern using lines, a pattern in nature, and a favorite pattern. Pattern is the foundation of our first major project in the third grade. More to come on that later…
