2nd Grade: Wayne Theibaud Cakes




The second grade students learned about the artist Wayne Thiebaud. We took a look at some of his cake paintings, which made us all very hungry!



We also learned what it means for something to be SYMMETRICAL. The students and I listed a few symmetrical things we could think of (butterfly, leaves, etc.) Then the students created SYMMETRICAL cake stands to put their cakes on! The students made their SYMMETRICAL cake stands by folding a piece of paper in half, drawing their design, cutting it out, and then opening the paper. 

The students used oil pastel to create whatever beautiful cakes they wold like.
