Building sandwiches

  

Texture, balance and variety were elements students concentrated on as they created this collage of a big sandwich! 

 

What do you need?

1. colored card board 
2. ribbed cardboard
3. leftovers of colored paper
4. yarn leftovers
5. fabric leftovers
6. pasta in different shapes
7. seeds and/or rice
8. scissors and glue

Discuss what kind of food students like on their sandwich and how to represent this. Examples: yellow paper with holes in it will represent cheese; red yarn can be ketchup and an enrolled piece of pink cotton is a slice of ham.

The artwork must partly be 3D, so do not paste everything just flat, but try to work spatial and let things overlap. 

What should you do?

1. Create a table cloth from leftovers of cotton or paper. 
2. Cut a plate and paste it on the table.
3. Cut two parts of a hamburger bun of ribbed cardboard. 
4. Now building can start!
5. Is there enough food on the sandwich? Close it with  the second piece of ribbed cardboard.

Works of art made in grade 4, 5 and 6.
