Dot Day

 Description:

 Create a 'dot' by incorporating the use of different media such as watercolor crayons, crayola markets, oil pastels, and paint. Students will create a design on a coffee filter using the materials and then blend them together with paint to make everything come together. I created an inspiration quote with the colors purple, blue, and yellow. I hid a message using white crayon before using paint to cause it to show up. It is a cool project as the white crayon is not visible until you add paint.

Extension Activity: 

Since this activity involves using crayon that disappears until you use paint, this could be a great catalyst into talking about famous people who just disappeared. For example, students could do a research project on Amelia Earhart and her disappearance and theories on what happened to her.
