Скачать или смотреть Constellation Creation Art Project

ust as humans from long ago found shapes in the night sky, this week’s art project will let us create our own constellation from the stars of a real one. The finished product is a paper with a collage of leaves, grass, or flowers glued to it in the shape of a constellation. The video, filmed in the S.T.E.A.M on The Bookshelf lab at University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, provides a step-by-step demonstration of how to create this fun project. The first step is to acquire all the necessary materials; this includes the weekly ‘Ohana guide, a pen or pencil, a glue stick or liquid glue, and a handful of leaves, grass, or flower petals. Once all the materials are gathered, open your ‘Ohana guide to find a constellation in the art project section. Use your pen or pencil to connect the stars in the constellation, then glue your leaves, grass, or flower petals along the lines. Continue to use your pen or pencil to draw in the finishing touches.
