5th Radial Names









In fifth grade we viewed and discussed the characteristics of stained glass windows, focusing on the Rose Window of the Notre Dame Cathedral in France. We noticed that the panes of glass repeated over and over again. We drew our names and then used tracing paper to make a mirror reflection. We repeated this over and over again, using the tracing paper to help transfer the name. Students then chose colors that would repeat in a circle. As they continue to add color, their name is less noticeable. Can you figure out who these great artists are?
