This activity was very fun and elementary students would love it. We started right in with this project we were each given a shoe box. The teachers showed us how to create the papers first then we were given time to create 6 papers. One for each of the 3 primary colors and one for 3 secondary colors. They also had 3 different rocks or pebbles to use to shake in the paint. To create these papers you simply put the paper in the bottom of a shoe box. Place a dot of paint in a corner of your paper and place a rock in the box. Shake the box vigorously to create a random pattern and spread the paint. For the secondary colors you simply put a dot of each primary color you want to combine. We then cut out geometric shapes and chose our favorite papers that we created and glued them to construction paper. I loved the activity and so would younger kids. For an extension activity i would get the kids active and go outside and find rocks and study other rocks.
