The tiffany lamp project with 2nd grade is going very well. We started off with warm and cool color families and symmetrical design. Then they learned about the artist Louis Comfort Tiffany on week two and placed their black lines on top of the coffee filters. For the final session we went back to symmetry as they created bases for the lamps. I gave students an additional challenge to make them stand. We talked about how adding a pull chain to the lamp will make the design asymmetrical and it may not balance. They were determined to find ways to make them stand and I am so proud of their efforts.
