Radial Symmetry Relief Paper Sculptures 3rd Grade → 8th Grade Materials & Resources: 12” x 12” black construction paper (or at least a square) 3” x 3” pieces of various colored construction paper. (approximately 25-40 pieces per artist) White glue A great resource for this project is: http://www.artwithmrsnguyen.com/2014/05/radi al-paper-relief-sculptures-4th5th.html .

Anticipatory Set/Instructional Input ● Explain what symmetry is, and the difference between linear and radial symmetry. Linear = 1 line of symmetry, Radial = multiple lines of symmetry. Refer to the example image page. Use the dry-erase marker to draw the lines of symmetry on top of the example images. ● Talk about how sculpture can be high-relief (3D/see all sides of artwork) but it can also be a low-relief (artwork has depth from the surface, but it is not totally 3D..can’t see all sides). This project is an example of low-relief sculpture. It still comes off the page, but is not totally independent. Guided & Independent Practice: 1. Fold the black paper vertically and horizontally. Fold the paper diagonally both ways. Basically create a ‘+’ and ‘X’ on the paper. These creases create guidelines for gluing. 2. Write name with pencil on the back of the black paper. 3. Teacher demonstrates 3-4 different types of folds with the colored pieces. 4. Let students choose their paper colors and folds. Students may do folds different from the ones demonstrated by the teacher. Remember: there should be symmetry not only in the fold shape, but also in the paper color. 5. It is wise to lay out the design before gluing. Remember to start from the center and work outwards. 6. Let work dry and come retrieve artwork! Thanks for joining!
