December Self Portraits

KDH continues to explore different ways to make self portraits. This month we discussed symmetry and used that information to create our self portraits. First we defined symmetry. Next we asked, "What are some things that are symmetrical?" "Butterflies, heart shapes, and yes, our faces as well as our bodies." We took mirrors and used them to create symmetrical images.

Each child was given a picture of half of his/her face, with the picture ending down the middle of the face, at the line of symmetry.The children drew the other half of their faces, necks and shoulders. 

We're so excited with the results. Please come in and admire!
