Spring is our biggest school fundraising season and our Silent Auction is our best event. I am always on the lookout for classroom projects that are colorful, quick and simple and Kandinsky circle projects always seem to do well. I’m working on this one with my 4th and 5th graders.
1. Students use a 6" cardboard square to trace and cut their background felt.
2. Using a variety of colored felt, they build their Kandinskylike circles from the top down, starting with the smallest piece. Each layer is mounted to a larger piece with craft glue. The 4 or 5 layers are then mounted to a 6" background square.
3. Glue the finished squares to a piece of black felt large enough to create an even border around the outer edge. Clean cutting and gluing is essential.

Beautiful!
This is a great idea.
Wonderful idea. Am I somehow missing sharing buttons on your posts? I'd love to share them.
Hi Kathy
I love this idea. I plan to use these same mural as a fundraiser at our school. I ordered a few of your PDF files yesterday and sent you 2 emails but have not heard anything back. How long does it take to get the order to my email? Can't want to start planning.
Thanks
