For our final project of Unit 4, second graders will explore the art of Spanish milagros, a type of metal etching art. Students will explore how milagros is an important form of art in the Spanish culture. To design their own milagros, students will be introduced to balanced symmetry. Students will brainstorm different things around them that have symmetry, and sketch out 2 or more of these designs. Students will create their milagros by tracing their designs into thin metal, and will complete their compositions by choosing a color scheme for their piece.
