8th grade collaborated on an assignment using oil pastels. Each student received an 8X8 piece of the painting Starry Night, by Vincent Van Gogh. On an 8X8 white drawing paper, using oil pastels, students were to recreate what they see. Trying their best to create the flowing movement that is so popular in Van Gogh's artwork. There are obviously some that are missing (or not completed yet), but I think so far it looks pretty good!!

| This assignment was used with all level students-ranging from Gifted to Life Skills and everywhere in between--all part of the big puzzle! |
Below are some of the finished mosaics created by the 8th grade classes (there is a preview of the beginning of the assignment on the bottom of the link). I think they all turned out successful and will definitely do this assignment again. Students enjoyed the hands on experience of cutting the CD's, and it really shows in the finished results.
