Paper Mosaic Creations

For this lesson we created paper mosaics that showed the season we were giving. We thought of something for out silhouette that represented out season. I chose to do a pumpkin spice latte for the season of fall. After we came up with our silhouette we needed to start gluing down the paper pieces to create a background for our silhouette. We needed to show some of the colors that represented fall. They cut out all the pieces for us but in a classroom they said they would have students cut it out and maybe use a full piece of construction paper. 

As an extension activity we could incorporate a math lesson with the shapes. They could still have all their seasons pictures on the sheet but they would need to include at least 4 different geometric shapes in the background. So for example instead of just using squares they would need to include a triangle, rectangle, or circle into the drawing.
