Description
Christmas Around the World Agamographs. What's an Agamograph?! It's a picture that morphs into another image when you look at it from a different angle. Agamographs are super fun and contemporary activities to easily integrate art into your classroom. There is a huge "wow factor" in this art activity—the students love the surprise. And best of all, they did it themselves!!
It's hard to say but easy to do!
I strongly recommend this for grades 3 and above.
Use this activity for your anticipatory set for your Christmas Around the World studies. Or use this activity for a final project when you are finished with any Holidays Around the World unit. Last but not least, use this project all on its own for a wonderful, memorable, integration of art, culture, and geography!
This set of my unique Christmas Around the World agamographs includes Christmas images from 12 countries from around the world:
- America
- Italy
- France
- Sweden
- Brazil
- Australia
- Mexico
- England
- Netherlands
- Canada
- Germany
- Russia
Also Available: Christmas Agamographs
Everything you need (besides some basic supplies) is included - handouts, written instruction for the teacher and student, quick checklists, and a video breaking down the whole process. Let me do the teaching with this video!
The images have already been "spliced" together, and each space has been assigned a color. Students color them and then fold them. Once completed, students can walk from one side of the image to the other and watch it change!
This is a project often used by art teachers; however, I've taken out most of the "prep and mess" so that classroom teachers can find this useful and fun as well as art teachers. This project makes a big impression on children and the school community. It gives kids such a great opportunity to try and explain how they created them and all the steps and sequence involved.
