Aliens from Planet Symmetry



Symmetry


I knew my third graders were reviewing symmetry and I was tired of the old butterfly. So I decided to have them make aliens. Of course they started by picking a color for their alien, folding the paper, and then drawing a curvy line.


It was neat to see all of the different shapes that were created and the students were very excited to decorate their aliens!

To get the font: Go to your dashboard ~Click on Design~ Click on the template tab ~ then Design~ then Advanced ~ you can change the font on any part of your blog ~ The Font we are using is called "Walter Turncoat"
